Is my tranny shot?

I got a ? for you all. I have a 89 RS camaro with a 700R4 Tranny. Now here is the problem. Some times when I came off a stop and I want to just roll slow the car seems to go from 2nd gear down to first, then back to second them down to first.......I have to put my foot down and speed up to stop this. Second thing. When I am driving my car begins to down shift for no reason. This happens when I dont touch the gas. Just have my foot on the pedal so it stay at a constant speed. Third problem. When I bought my car 3 1/2 years ago I could slam the gas to the floor to take off and the car would shift high like around 3500 RPMs. Since I have been noticing the last 2 problems the car wont **** till about 4500 or higher some times I get in to the yellow line of my TAC. WHUT DOES THIS ALL MEAN? Am I screwed? Should I look in to a new tranny say a manual or just get mine fixed? And if I went manual would I have to put in a new computer? If you have any ideas on my problem please HELP ME. Thanks

No idea about the transmission, but I noticed you were running the flowmaster 80 series.. Do you like it? I just purchased one, but haven't installed it yet.. I have been reading other posts & not many people like the flowmaster mufflers.. I downloaded some sound files & I'm not sure if it was the quality of the file or what, but the flowmaster didn't sound all that great..

Let me know your thoughts..
