dashco,

Sounds like your transmission is shot. If you take it to any transmission shop they will simply tell you to rebuild it. Only other thing you can do before rebuilding it is to remove the valve body and check it throughly. This would be a good time to install a shift kit too. If the kit install does not work and you cleaned out the valve body really good then rebuilding or swapping it out are your options.
