How do I determine it is TCC and not torq converter?

Can anyone give me a starting point as to why my 96 LT1 automatic will not shift into high gear. I have changed both solonoids in the transmission. I have googled this problem. No one seems to have an answer. It will sometimes shift into high but most times not.

If your front tires are 45's put 40's on. It will lower the front about 3/4 inch. Alot cheaper if you want to change back and you will.

Important time and trouble saver. Always replace the throttle position sensor on 1996 LT1 with genuine AC Delco part. Other parts may not work properly and give check engine code. It took me 1 month and 3 TPS's to figure this out. Might be the case with other aftermarket electronics too!
