ok here`s the story. at a red light with a co-worker/fellow mustang owner next to me(in girlfriends car) next to him pulls up his friend with a camaro all revving up and stuff. so i go to power brake it and instead i break it!!!

here`s what i have. 90 lx with a aod, transgo shift kit, 2400 stall converter, 373 gears, no motor work. so i figure i snapped the input shaft no big deal. no gears at all, motor just revs. not even reverse.

get the transmission out and guess what? i already have a one piece input shaft. i dont remember doing it but must have done my homework when i put the conveter in. anyway, now i dont know what the issue could be? what can i do to try to figure this out? if major inside should i rebuild or by a prebuilt one? money is an issue of course as with everyone i imagine.

any input will be greatly helpfull thanks

It could be the torque converter. When you turn the input shaft does the output shaft move (driveshaft)?

"Power jacking a car is bad, m-kaaay."
When I see someone doing it, I just think they look silly.

I do the AOD shuffle with no problem. Can't afford a valve body for my tranny. The tranny has held up to drag strip abuse. I know it is not good at all for the tranny but I got a couple of spares
