Default 3-4 clutch pack bad

I had a transmission guy drive my car because it is not shifting till 70 or so. Does this sound like a clutch pack and would this require a complete rebuild. 1200-1700 price range for all the work and new convertor

Late shifting is not a clutch pack issue. Slipping is a clutch problem.

What gear is it shifting to at 70? From 2nd to 3rd and at a high rpm? What year? If so it may be governor related or something to do with the throttle valve. Has there been any work done to the trans lately?
