Default 1998 Z28 trans problem

SO basically last weekend i took Z28 out to my friends cottage in the boonies and i decided to take advantage of the empty country roads so i did a 0-110 run on this straight road, Turns out it had a couple waves in it and my new dual exaust with H-pipe bottoms out pretty good. woke up the next morning and go to put the car in reverse and its acting like its in neutral and when i put it in neutral its like 1st gear or something the only thing that works is wheres its supposed to be is overdrive. when its in od is shifts fine like the gears just seem to be relocated its like it got stuck in od or something. Any ls1 doctors have any diagnosis?

It sounds like when you bottomed out the shifter cable bracket on the trans got bent or the shift lever got bent.
