Transmission Question

Well I just read through 20 some odd pages of transmission problems and havent really gotten anywhere so Im hoping you guys can help me out on this one. I recently purchased a 92 LSL with 145k miles on it. The transmission is doing some weird things. It started out by revving a bit before it went into 3rd and 4th gear, but typically dropped right into gear. More recently it has gotten worse it still revs a bit before dropping in RPM's, but when it does it feels like the car has absolutely no power yet its still accelerating at a decent pace. Occasionally once it catches the tires chirp..It has done it a few times in 1-2 gears, but not everytime like it is with 3rd and 4th. Sometimes if im only at light throttle it just goes straight into gear, but other times it does the same thing regardless. At full throttle theres no problems either. It will also downshift when im in cruise and rev like up then seem like it has no power yet still accelerate..

I originally thought it may be either the torque converter or throttle postion sensor and still think it could be one of those after reading through all the info, but im also starting to think that my tranny might be screwed up. It has been getting worse everyday so I really need to get it figured out. Any help is greatly appreciated and hope no one is offended by the 6000th transmission question thread
