Did he replace the hidden O rings at the base of the clutch baskets? If you don't do that, the leakage will not allow the clutches to fully engage. To replace the O rings you have to drill out several rivets to get to the O ring. You then have to tap the rivet holes and put in a flat head screw. Ask him if he did that.
Those O-rings are for clutches K1 and K2; they won't affect reverse at all.
Not all overhaul kits come with the K1 and K2 repair kits with the screws and O-rings. Really not sure what the OP is hearing in his transmission without seeing it for myself. Is it something that slows down as the transmission engages?
