Is the s10 converter loose enough to cause an impala to bounce off the rev limiter during a WOT shift? I had my trans rebuilt with a shift kit (i don't even know what kind) earlier this year and now during WOT 2-3 shifts it bounces off the rev limiter the majority of the time. When it was really hot out i had the same issue with the 1-2 shift about 2 times.
When i initially noticed the problem, i checked the fluid and it didn't seem burnt, but it was overfilled. I siphoned some out to correct the level (thinking that ATF might be getting aerated) and it seems slightly better now (could be my imagination), but it still misses the 2-3 shift a lot.
Is this something that can/should be corrected by changing shift points with a tune, or is there more likely something mechanically wrong with my trans? I took it back to the shop and they can't seem to find anything wrong with it :-/
edit: just called back and they got it to recreate the problem and are checking further into it now
