Default No forward what gives???

WTF last night while doing my burn out in my 98 z with a stage II trans 4l60e per speed inc. with 3200 vig. Something happen!!! after burn out I got no forward in any gears. I thought I broke rear end. I checked under car no fluid leaking no weird noise or NOTHING. I still have reverse but no forward in anything. What could this be? Prior to this I had no Trans issues at all...

If you have no forward gears at all I would have to say something has happened in the Input drum and forward clutch/sprag assembly

My only question is....... Were the line pressures set too high? Sounds like a busted input drum.

Default Cracked fwd accum piston

IF the forward accum piston is the late model plastic one, it could have broke, causing the forward clutch pressure to bleed off. << It's in the valve body next to the shift solenoids.
