Just did a suncoast 4 build & although the trans seems to be able to hold, I am thinking that there is a problem somewhere & would like a few suggestions on what to do. Here is why i am thinking there is a problem!
(1) Very uneasy shift from 3 to 4 seems like it is hanging up between shifts but when i does shift 4th has got a good power band.
(2) I dont really get good crisp shifts (I think it shifted better before the build) You could acually feel the firmness in shifts at all times before the build.
not sure if it is just the different feel of the 1057 converter.
(3) If i am cruising & get on it, it dont really get going unless i can hit it hard enough to downshift.
I know all this may sound a little dumb but i think the trans that was in the truck before the build acually felt like it was holding more power to the ground up until 4 to 5 shift where it would then limp.
Any help would be great .
