well it took like 5 and a half hours for the header installation for newbies like me and my dad... we had to jack the motor up and put spacers in there also had to install a bracket that is required for headers...
well we had to push the car home (abuot 75 to 100 ft) and when i went to put it in park, it would try to grab but couldnt grab park enough to make it stop.

Did you tweak the shifter linkage while you were under there or when you jacked the engine up? It should be fairly easy to adjust it back to normal.
