Hey, I have found that when accelerating WOT, the RPM stays at 4k for a second then moves to the 5500 shift point. This is the only gear that does this--all others shift smoothly. Note--this is only at WOT, during 3/4 throttle, it accelerates as the others. Any thoughts?

Tech specs:

Rebuilt 4R70W
stock rear gear
Magnaflow full exhaust
K&N filter
Tornado Air

maybe your just spinning your tires w/o even knowing, and then it's grabbing at 5500?

Or maybe you have the wrong tranny fluid in the tranny.
