Since it is trying to shift a torn seal during the install is the most common issue. You could have a sticky valve. Checking line pressrue while the car shifts into gear could give you a clue but I would pull the valve body and go thru it before I pulled the tranny back out.

Oh that dose assume the accumulator is together right. Did you do the tranny yourself or have it done?

i had a friend do it that i thought he knew what he was doing. but end the end he did a real crap job. i was able to pull the out put shaft out by hand. so i think i am going to go with my other option and i put a tranny in it that came out of a vette. i am going to have to come up with a way to make a rear mount but i dont think that should be to hard.

Your going to need to build something like this. My homemade torque arm relocation bracket. What yal think - LS1TECH

Remember your drive line angle is very impotant. If the angle of the drive shaft is off even one degree you car will shake at 50+ MPG.

Hey, if I could get 50 MPG out of a Camaro, I'd put up with a little shake!
