I had a local shop do a rebuild on a tranny of mine. When I got it back the tranny shifted too hard and would not kick down to passing gear. I took it back to him and he replaced the governor. Now the 1-2 shift happens at 20mph, 2-3 shift happens at 30 mph and not trying I can be into OD by 40. Before the car ran great, but now the problem is the car wont rev over 4k rpms without breaking up and just plain not accelerating. Tried it with no boost and with full boost, same result.
Was reading a post from a while ago and someone was explaining how the governor worked and I think that I am now onto something. Is there a limiter in the tranny? The only way I can build up enough RPM's to have this happen is by manual shifting. I am just wondering if I now have a governor out of a monte or something like that.
Any help would be appreciated..
Thanks
