Are you sure the trans is not overfull. And did you try and hook anything up to or damage the vent tube on the top of the trans just behind the bell housing. If its puking fluild out the dipstick that means air cannot get out of the vent.

The tranny is not overfilled. I made sure to be careful with the vent tube, but I will double check it to make sure. Any other thoughts?

That really sounds like the vent tube is blocked
