Truck just got ls swapped, stock 5.3 with a fresh 60e dude drove it 30-45 minutes no issues, test drives it again 10 minutes while I’m driving to pick it up, shreds 3-4 clutches at like 48% throttle.. trans was built less then 5000 miles ago with a 5.0 on It, wonderful stiff shifts. so I have it pulled and gone through by my tranny guy, everything looks brand new except the 3-4 clutches, replaced them and opened the valve body up, I believe he said. Which should have further stiffened my shift points. Guy puts tranny back in does some tuning, now it’s a loose butthole all the way up just smooth as butter and slipping all the way, now I am driving home with no phone at this point so it’s 3 miles to home or 15 back to the shop, so I go home, check fluid still clear and red doesn’t smell burnt, only caught 2 stop lights and a stop sign, didn’t slip at the stop sign or the first light just lightly cruised up, but at the last light it idled down to like 450 rpm threw a knock sensor code, and slipped all the way up to third, it didn’t seem to slip 4th but then It’s like 6-7 houses so I just coasted it back to my house and up in the drive way, where it slipped first trying to drive slope, did not sound rough anything. Could it be something going on with his tune, or what’s best way to check my bases? Tranny guy says it’s the tuner, tuner says it’s the tranny guy basically.
