Is this normal for a Y87?

[Need4Camaro]

When I stomp on it from a 45 - 50 MPH roll it doesn't go from 4th to 2nd, just 3rd and it takes a LONG time to get up there + it feels sort of weak till it hits it's powerband. Is that normal?

Mine will do that when it needs new tranny fluid.

As in when it needs to be FLUSHED AND REFILLED or when it's low and just needs to be topped off?

Mine does that sometimes too .. sometimes it will take forever and sometimes it will slam your head back on the seat .. dunno .

My only two guesses are Tranny mount (which is common on our cars) and Tranny Flush and Fill

I'ma go for the mount first because it's cheaper and my tranny mount is stock, not to mention I just had a tranny rebiuld so I can't see Fluid getting bad within 4 months time period...

Your computer also controls the 4-2 downshift, with a tuner this is editable what rpm/speed you want it to actually downshift.

You may be hitting it right at the point where is ONLY downshifts to 3rd, If I get time I'll check out the stock 4-2 shift point.
