transmission install messed something else up - SRT Forums

well i just finished puttin my transmission back in.... went to start it up and it turned over much longer than normal... but i figured it was just from sitting for the last week or so... so i shut it of and it took quite awhile to start again... but this time i let it idle for a bit ran through all the gears just checking everything, and it was shifting fine but when i give it gas as soon as i start building boost the car will misfire.... i checked all the connections/vacuum lines... and couldnt find anything so i was wondering, is there a sensor i forgot possibly that could be causing this to happen, or has anybody else ever had this problem after a transmission install.... it was running fine before i pulled it and sat for about a week.... im mostly worried about the rough starting issue though so any input would be greatly appreciated

CEL on? if so, what's the code(s)?

cel codes were on but never got the codes for it... figured it out though... the sensor on the bottom of the starter was not connected all the way. got that taken care of and its running smoothly now. its like a whole new car
