I would assume we are talking about a 47RE? not an RH, sounds like the trans is loosing pressure to apply the clutch pack. If you manually put it in low or 2nd does it act right then?

Yes it is a 47re and no it does the same thing in every gear

If the fluid level is correct I would look around the truck and see if something got disconnected during the recent maintenance.
Check wiring.
Is your Tach working?
Did you install a new converter during the trans swap?
Since the trans isn't very old I wouldn't think bands or an adjustment.
Could be a Gov solenoid maybe.
