Hard to say what the issue is without knowing more,was the trans fine prior to the work done? Was the tranny touched at all during the swap? Who did the work. What did the fluid look like, was there anything in the filter? Stock converter?

So basically the motor is just free reving?

Sounds to me like it was low on fluid and you kept trying to drive it.

The severe multiple bends in the dipstick tube can make the stick hard to read, as fluid that drips off on the way out can get on the stick when you reinsert.

If the converter was drained they should be partially preilled before reinstall.
