Yet another 700R4 dilemma

So it hits 3-3.5k rpm before it shifts into second, there is no 3rd or 4th. Not the original tranny or block, the mechanic that put the tranny in said to try Trans-X but that didn't help, replaced the detent cable (the old one was binding in the plastic shield), still no 3rd or 4th.
Help?
Can a stock 700R4 handle a Chevy 350 ok?

Actually the guys name is Joe...

It's supposed to be handled by the guy that dropped the tranny in so hopefully I won't have to deal it anymore.

Thanks though.
