What car did you have, TBI, TPI?, carb?

What is on the new motor for induction?

WHICH other post? There's thousands on this web site.

You're saying your "mechanic" put in a 350 but didn't change any of the calibration items like injector sizing or ECM/prom? Your "mechanic" is an idiot. You're going to need the injectors and ECM/prom for a 350 in your vehicle at minimum. Be sure the calibration includes the transmission type you have and the appropriate gear ratio--an ECM/prom for 4.11 gears won't play well if you have 3.42s.

Trans slipping?
Trans not upshifting properly?
Trans works fine, you're not used to how it is supposed to sound?

No way to tell from here.
