Double check everything and make sure everything is hooked up and bolted back up properly. Very easy to overlook something when you are swapping a motor (been there and done that).

did u put the vaccuum modulator hose on the transmission(from the throttle body intake area)? that is used if your car is not a electronic transmission. i'm more familiar with buicks but most have that set-up before 2000 models, i think.
