Not enough info.
With od off and gas pedal floored does the trans downshift to 2nd?
Does it ever shift out of 2nd?
With od off at 80mph, what is engine rpm?

Sounds like 3rd gear lock-up to me. I agree with Branson.

No solution. 3rd gear lock-up is normal. The only thing that might help is tuning. (to remove lock-up actuation in 3rd gear)

TC will still lockup in 3rd (OD off) with Superchips. I personally like this, brings the RPM down just a little to the torque of the 4.7.

Now if I could only get my TC to hold the lock longer in 4th...likes to unlock with the slightest throttle input.
