tranny help needed

Just had my tranny redone while pulling my trailer 50-65mph the tourqe converter keep locking and unlocking, I took it to the guy that built the tranny and we took off pulling the same trailer tourqe convereter started doing it again, he had all his fancy equipment pliged into the truck and all it pulled was a kam and a cps I changed the cps and still had the same problem I think the kam is do to my superchip tuner, He seems to think the trany did it before but I never felt it because I never felt the old tourqe converter lock up. Any body have any Ideas on this. What tells the tourqe converter to lock and unlock. Any thoughts are greatly appreciated

The tuning, Consider going with custom tunes sooner than later.

BTW, when you step on the pedal, it should unlock, then lock again shortly after. Mine does that.

Possible. Try it in a different tune or stock.
