Default 1994 auto tranny problems

New to C.F. Best car ever HAD! I have a 1994 z-28 with 3000 stall, shift kit, 10 months ago rebuilt. During normal driving up to 3/4 throttle it's fine; but when i floor it, it lets loose and just revs up and if I back off it will catch a gear at take off like a bat out of hell. Also I was shifting manually to see if it was working the second gear does nothing until i give throttle than it catches.
Don't know if it's a second gear servo, sprag, line pressure, or time for another rebuild!

That is a common problem when using high stall speed converters. There is a fix for it, but I can't remember what was done. I'll post it as soon as I find it again.

The fix that was mentioned was to make sure the shifter cable is set up correctly, and use the stronger solenoids fron a Corvette transmission.
