Default trans issue (video of problem)

well i just got done swapping an lq9 into my 98 z28 with the t-56 transmission.

during the swap i upgraded to a monster stage 2 clutch and chromoly lightweight flywheel and changed out my slave cylinder. i also swapped out my stock crossmember for the umi torque are relocation crossmember.

the motor starts up perfect with no flaws but when i put the trans into reverse it feels almost like the trans is jumping around. when i try it in first it seems fine. (might do it slighly but nothing like in reverse)

problem happens when in reverse and am letting the clutch out to start moving.

here is a quick video i took of the problem.

Some small amount of chatter it appears. Go drive it, put some heat into it (don't get to aggressive of course) try it again. I say it starts getting better.

Good...keep us updated, but I say that it disappears in the next 100 or so miles.
