ok well ive just recently done a sohc to dohc swap in my 89 auto hatch. well when i finished the hatch i started her up and went to drive it down the street and i put it in drive and it would just rev i would have to rev about 5k just for it to slowly start to go. my transmission had been slipping before i did the swap like taking long to switch gears and when it would only go to 2k and act like it was bouncing off the rev limiter.i have a couple ideas and i believe its my torque converter out! Either that or my fliter is clogged! if anybody has had this similar problem or has any idea what it could be let me know!!
