I just converted back to l/u.
Brand new 9/11 converter, new switches, valve,solenoid,and new harness.
The converter will not unlock at the 3rd-4th shift, and it slams in to od. Do I have a bad pressure switch? If I touch the brake with my left foot, and un lock the converter it shifts in to od no problem.
What do i do???
THANKS ALOT

Whats happening is that the car is passing the MPH threshold for lock up bfore you go into od inturn you get that slam. The easiest way i have fixed that in the past is to have the chip LU raised to prevent this from happening
 
Also may be throttle-independant as well, usually it will unlock if you give it a certain throttle amount. Ihave mine set up to lock at 45 mph in 3rd/4th, works pretty well.. I was sick of having it locked up while im in breakneck traffic jams at 25 mph ;)
