Car goes in gear but wont move.
I got a Brand new TCI 3200-3500 stall in my camaro and I just fired the car up with no tune//heads/cam only car. I put it into gear to make sure everything was working properly and it wouldn't move. I rev'ed the car to at least 3200 and it only bugged forward. The shifter links and everything are right but i can figure out what the problem.
Could it be that my stock converter bolts pulled the converter away from the transmission so its not pumping fluid ??
Any ideas??

This is Lou, from Mad Dog Transmissions. Please give me a call at 770-781-0949 I can help you.
Yeah it definitly going in gear.. I have to rev it up fairly high just to get it to barely Move in Reverse or In Drive. I put transmisson fluid in it and i think it might be to full now because while its running it spitting the fluid back out the Dip stick.
