i have been having the same issues as you described. slow until 2k rpm, then it takes off. But this is only when i have the vacuum line to the tranny disconnected....

if i connected it, then it flares really bad. every gear it feels like it drops to neutral, and the engine takes off.

I check the vacuum system and it is in good shape, holds vacuum well.

It is still slow when connected, but as soon as i get to the gear shift it flares. what should i check?
