Spider gear question
 
My car is a 95 Z28 manual trans and I had the rear end up to change the rotors and pads but I forgot to break the nuts loose on the wheels. So instead of lowering it back to the ground I just put the car into gear I figured I could break the nuts loose with it in gear. It stopped the wheel from moving until I put a lot of torque on it and then it spun past the stop point of where the gear was stopping it. After I figured out it was not going to work I just put the car on the ground and broke the nuts loose and changed the pads and rotors. After I put everything back together and went for a ride around the block the car had hardly no acceleration and felt really weird. I couldn't tell if there was grinding noise from the rear because I was on a freshly graveled road with a lot of rocks on it and my car is very loud. Could I have screwed something up spider gear etc. Any help would be greatly appreciated Thank you

z28 is posi, no spider gears. has a clutch. should not effect power. brakes set wrong on the other hand can. see if e brake or breaks are dragging.
