from what i was told by performabuilt, gears, power adders, or anything else that is going to have a decent effect on how fast the rpm's climb will make it do it until you have the pcm tuned accordingly. the line pressures of the transmission have to be increased to speed up the shifts
The pcm was tuned about a year ago , I've never had this problem until now.Quote:

sounds like its slipping as posted above, but neways whats a rev limiter :)
It's the trans, my friend had the same issue with his 94 z28, and everyone kept saying it was the computer and other things and it turned out to be the transmission. Get it rebuilt by someone that knows what they're doing.
Check your fluid level.

Sounds like the trans is on its way out. FLT builds bad ass 60es
