transmission question - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I have the truck tore apart now, got a shipment in from LMC, rocker panels, cab corners and all that good stuff. The new motor sounds great but a small problem with the transmission....when I put it in gear there is a hard pull either foward or backwards depending on if it is in drive or reverse. No hesitation in going into gear...I am worried there is too much torque coming from the motor to the transmission. Would this be a tourqu converter problem or something else. Usually in my other older trucks....79 ford there is a smooth change between changing gears. What do ya'll think?
