Exactly. It was 5500 rpm and right before I pulled trans back out it it was slowly creeping at 3500 but still no acceleration....? Idk what to think or do from here...

Was the converter to flywheel clearance checked? My yank had to have some abundant to get the desired clearance.

Wouldn't the converter just get pulled back to the flywheel?
