What would cause the 700r4 (built) not downshift

it up shifts okay.. and it will stay in 4th gear and lock up all the way down to 1000 rpm, where my car starts to buck a 1400 rpm

it is a 87 700r4 from a Vette

I swapped it into a Vette that used to have a 6 speed, the TCC is not controlled by the ECM, the lockup is by pressure switch,

my mechanic whom I paid 5k to do the job, has zero answers, lame as can be...

comments plz....
