Exclamation 4l60 codes after a swap

hey guys finished my motor swap on a 2003 Silverado, mated a 6.0 with my built 4l65, which did see use in my previous setup, ran fine no codes, well after dropping it back in I'm getting code P01860, P0740(TC clutch circuit open), P0785(Shift/Timing Solenoid Malfunction/ 3-2 Shift Solenoid Circuit Electrical), P0753(Powertrain Control Module (PCM) has detected an electrical abnormality in transmission shift solenoid A.), and some manufacturer control codes, these where not present before and i cant figure it out, there all at the same time could i just be having ground issues? did i somehow blow the trans? any help would be appreciated.

Check grounds on the back of both heads and make sure the trans electrical plug is plugged in correctly.

As long as it is a clean connection it should be good.

The head ground was done to avoid a problem with some engines, where the heads did not get a good ground via the block and head bolts, the MLS gaskets coating from some vendors is non conductive/poorly conductive. Caused coil mis triggers and weak spark. Seen it at the track a time or two.. I'm sure its far from a 100% problem , but My L33 WILL NOT fire correctly if the head grounds are not perfect, I had to move the left one from the block to the head. (Wasn't paying attention and used the wrong bolt hole.. )
