Hesitates around 2500. Sound like a tranny prob?

Recently, I've noticed that while casually accelerating through the gears, I'll get a slight bogging around 2500rpm. It'll stay there for a sec or two, then it'll catch up and accelerate normal until the next shift. It doesn't do this everytime, but once it's warm, it'll do about 50% of the time. Under WOT, it doesn't noticeably hang at 2500, but I "think" I'm losing a little power/torque.

Could this be tranny issue? I have a 2400 stall. It could be a coincidence that this is happening at around the same RPM as the stall, or it could be related, ya think?

Someone mentioned to me that it could also be a fuel problem. I don't know much about troubleshooting that. 170,000 on the fuel system, upgraded cam...more harsh performance driving....sure could be time for an upgrade. What are some symptoms of a fuel pump issue. I'm gonna test the pressure, but is it possible that the pump sometimes works fine, and sometimes gets a little weak?


...I'm gonna post a link in the Tech/Gen eng forum too.
