trans help
I drove the car last night with no problems. I drove it around the block today and it felt a little sluggish so i go to pull it in my buddys shop and i cut it off outside of his shop. When I crunk it up and put it in gear it would not pull at all. It will not take reverse or any forward gear. It has a new PTC 2800 stall converter and it is a stock 4r70w? I really need some help I'm trying to get it back on the road by next week for Mustang week. Any help is greatly appreciated!

It has new fluid and the filter is less than a year old. The linkage is good and tight, and it shifts. I can put it gear with the ignition off and it rolls freely in forward and reverse?
