The pump I put in it worked fine in the first trans... that
trans we forgot a torrington bearing in the OD and after about
400 miles it ate up the OD drum... so that pump worked.. I
got it from Cope.. and I picked up another pump from him for
my spare trans

Don't give up. Just put a 727 in there and be done with it. Car will only get maybe 2mpg better with the 518. Set the cruze control on 3700 and wear ear plugs. Overdrives are overrated.

If I had an overdrive I would still cruise at the same RPM as my car is really happy there(at least with the old motor) so an overdrive would just be there faster lol.

Used... bought it at the bone yard... pulled the
pan and the oil was good and almost nothing in
the pan (trash).... I went thru the one that was
in it... I feel sure its good but I have lost my
confidence... I'm gonna run it up to a trans shop
in Almont thats suppose to be good on mopars and have
him take it apart.. if he can get it done in a couple
of days I'll pull the engine/trans

come on... you have to find a little humor in the fact that you've taken a lot of time, carefully plotted and executed your plan..... just to be at crunch time and now wondering if Billy's brothers are going to make it and you aren't! YOU CAAANNN DO IT! kind of reminds me of my situation. 26 passes on a new combo, have had the trans out twice and it's now currently at Pro Trans. I threw in the towel.... At least when it gets done it will be right and I'll be able to have some fun..... (laugh2....we always think that for some reason)

That is what came to my mind also (rear clutch not competely disengaged).

Creeping in Neutral due to a tight rear clutch pack isn't all that unusual but the OP also has a bind-up in Reverse which isn't normal.

Band adjustment has nothing to do with transmitting power, bands are brakes used to stop components from moving not to connect components...only clutches do that.

This is why I brought up mismatched Converter and front pump. I've had it happen and this is exactly what it did to me. Not sure why it does it. But it did.

Thanks... I'm just about ready to pull the engine/trans
but I have to turn the car around... 2 of my buddies will
be here in the morning to help turn it around... I'll pull
tomorrow... then wait for the trans... if he tells me that
everything looks good in the one I did.. then I'll do this
one also as a spare.. I want him to verify the whole thing

Also.. found that its different today from yesterday..
today it moves about 10" in reverse and locks up... put
it in park then back into reverse it moves 10".. I did
this about 20 times trying to turn the car around... then
said F-it and pulled forward onto the hoist to start tearing
things apart ... turn it around tomorrow and pull it out

Mike, I had this happen on a 47RE in a diesel truck one time. It turned out that it had broken the middle ring on the input shaft.

As I remember this middle ring seperates the rear clutch and converter lube circuit. When the ring is broken, the converter lube will actually apply the rear clutch. Normally this isn't a problem because the rear clutch is "on" in all forward gears.

But it can cause the vehicle to move forward in Neutral, and bind in Reverse.

Isn't this the ring that you damaged that I had Tiffany drop off to you? Maybe it is damaged again (or a mismatch of parts not allowing them to go together properly?)

The trans thats in the car is from the bone yard..
I changed the pump and input shaft and put a drain
plug/temp gauge on it... thats all I did so maybe
this thing was broke when I bought it... it just
looked decent inside... if I changed the pump and the
input shaft is in it... could I have broken that ring
but the pump did slide in nice.. I used pins to align it..
but this sounds lie how its acting
