(this issue is kind of hard to explain). When you crest a hill going around 25MPH and you're not hitting the throttle, the transmission will shift either up or down depending. Now, here's where the issue lies. Whenever you resume acceleration, the engine will rev up before catching and/or dropping back into gear. It's almost like the transmission sits between 3 and 4 in neutral and when you hit the throttle it shifts one way or the other back into a forward gear. The transmission has the proper amount of fluid (Valvoline max life) and when I put the car back together, I changed out the filter as well. ANY IDEAS??
Do you mean the transmission was recently rebuilt or rebuilt like thousands of miles ago?

I can't answer your specific qutestion but the modulator can be adjusted and the same with the bodwen cable.

There is also 2 places to check the the pressure (during the modulator adjustment?).

Also you have an Vacuum Valve adjustment on the Fuel Injection Pump.
