Is your TV cable adjusted properly. Also, sometimes it takes a few hundred miles for all to "work itself out". Do A serach to find out how to properly adjust your TV cable(the cable on your throttle linkage that runs to your tranny).
Good Luck!

If those are WOT shift points the 1-2 seems a little low for an LT1.

You need to change the weights/springs in the governor to change those shift points; the TV cable control line pressure and so part throttle shift points and firmness.
