CAN ANYONE GIVE ME SOME IDEAS OR IS IT TIME FOR A REBUILD?

HERES THE CODITIONS: ENGINE FRESHLY REBUILT SAY 2500 MILES AGO FROM (WILDCAT PERFORMANCE DOWN HERE IN SOUTH GA.) TRANMISSION WAS IN THE CAR WHEN MY BROTHER BOUGHT IT ABOUT A YR. & A HALF AGO SHIFTED FINE AFTER THE REBUILD ALSO IT HAS A NON LOCK UP ART CARR 3400 STALL DONT KNOW WHO BUILT THE TRANS BUT HAS BEEN IN THE LOW 7'S in the 1/8th, BEFORE HE BOUGHT IT..... HE GETS ON IT PRETTY REGULAR ESPECIALLY BACK ROAD RACING. WENT TO THE TRACK FIRST TIME AFTER REBUILD GOT A 7.30 FIRST PASS AND 7.40 SECOND PASS BLAH BLAH BLAH SEVERAL WEEKS LATER WHICH IS NOW ALL OF A SUDDEN

it shifts ok but a little different than my car being non lock up & all mines lock up...
cant remember before but his goes to 2nd after about 3000rpm then 3rd or overdrive at about 3600 rpm then they drop to like 1850rpm or so at 60mph so thats ok at light throttle.

wide open throttle it just revs high and hit the rev limiter so we get out of it
goes back to cruisin as normal.

fluid doesnt smell burnt , levels ok in the s mark..
do he need a rebuild because of the motor just been rebuilt thats what happened to mine aftermy motor was rebuilt probably a month later....

it drives ok on the street just dont go wide open throttle or extremem revs.
heres some pressure checks

min Park & Nuet both at 80psi Max both at 190 bouncing needle
min rev 155 --- max 250
min d4 & d3 80 --- max both at 190
mn d2 &d1 both at 170--- max both at 170


Any help please............:(
 
Sounds Like Youve Got No 2nd Gear.get It Up To 30 Mph In Manual 1 And Shift To 2nd.does It Shift?get It In 3rd Gear And Pull The Lever To 2nd .does It Bump The Limiter?if Yes You Have No Second Gear.pull It Out.
 
I will do that first thing in the morning Thanks chris even if its just for responding i dont know what id do without this board. i'lll let you know the results...2 morow..
 
Ok Chris Tried It Like You Said & I Think That Was It Gonna Have To Pull It I Guess IS That A Hard Or Expensive Job?? Still Got Any Pictured Manuals left If So How Much? is that why my pressure reading on the gauge didnt change from 170 psi in min tv readings to 170psi full tv in D1 & D2 ? if so thats a nice trouble shooting device..Thanks In Advance For Your Help>>
