Yes it is, I was taking it out this keep happening. It is a 200R4 not built long ago. It stops after driving it some, but it shifts through the gears fast unless you are getting on it. I thought it was suppose to shift at certain speeds' I don't have the normal TV cable but a Bowler Trushift.

The FiTech EFI is running but I have not fully tested it as the I became curious about the trans and the mufflers I put on are deafening.

I thought it was suppose to shift at certain speeds' I don't have the normal TV cable but a Bowler Trushift.The Bowler system seems a little simplistic in it's description of how the system on you transmission works. I have always use Bowtie Overdrives system with excellent luck . It allows the adjustment of shift points by giving you the ability to actually adjust the geometry of the cable as it rides over it's ramp. Setting the starting point of the throttle valve travel by just using wide open throttle to set the cable doesn't take into consideration any discrepancy's that might exist internally in the valve body that might affect the valve position. I also always use a pressure gauge to set the system up. If you want to take some time and educate yourself on the system take a look at the three part explanation posted on the Bowtie Overdrive site I've posted below. Another thought...Are you using a lock up converter??Part 1 Part 2Part 3
Is the trans using the lock-up feature? If so, can you try disabling power to it just to check for a sticky lock up solenoid?

It would be worth seeing if the tranny functions properly for a short time.From what I understand with the 700R4 is that the transmission has a constant 12v power supply (with directional diode) that runs from the power source to the brake pedal switch (closed position) then into the transmission. The tranny via a hydraulic pressure switch powers the TTC solenoid - locking the torque converter.When you apply the brakes, the pedal switch goes open circuit cutting off the TTC solenoid power which in turn unlocks the torque converter so the car won't stall when applying brakes.If you cut the transmission power and the cars drives fine....you'll know that the problem is in the power to lock up somewhere.BUT: we don't know for sure it's a tranny problem..but we need to start somewhere.

Same stall almost when stopping until warmed up. It shifts so fast it bogs the motor. Don't understand how the wiring works, no connection to a brake switch. Wired switched 12v to the left side of the Trans to a duel prong connector, then the other side runs the right side and connects right behind the shift lever. Look at pics. I am way over my head and frustrated. I can't even drive it to set up the EFI. If you disable it the lock up solenoid won't work and the torque converter won't lock up...that's all.
