Default Transgo issue

Pulled my motor and tranny and decided to put in the transgo kit while the tranny was out. Put everything back in and now the car won't go into gear, any gear! What did I mess up most likely? I'm sure messing anything up isn't good and could cause problems but what is most likely the part I fircked up on? Installed a converter at the same time as well.

I'll recheck it again. Is there a way to tell if it might be the TC clutch instead of the tranny? Other than pulling it again. Will the tranny act differently if it is the clutch in the TC?

Listen Up...I think your problem isn't with the transgo ...from the sounds of it you've mis stabbed the t.c. Probably broke the rotor....It's not in your clutch in the converter....do you have any pressure?? check your trans fliud with the engine off....recheck after you start the engine...Did the tranny level stay the same or drop?? We need alittle more info to help you...Hope this helps..... Dave

This sounds too easy but it would make your day if this is the problem. Did you forget to reattach the shifter cable? Or forget to remount it to the pan? Just a thought. That would cause it to not shift into any gear.

Fluid stays the same cold or hot. Vehicle rolls forward when the shifter is in park too

Hey, Your rolling problem is more than likely a out of adjustment cable..see it alot. from what your telling us it seems like you've mis stabbed the transmission. Put a pressure gage on it see if you have pressure. Hope this helps ...Dave
