so we put in the tranny and connected everything, and when we start the car, and put it in gear, u can hear under the car that there is clicking like its going into gear, but when we let our foot off the brake...the car doesnt move. idk what the problem is. Any one can help!

The transmission is full of fluid is it not? It may take several cycles of filling the transmission, starting the engine, and cycling through the gears before the transmission will be entirely full. This is especially true if you did not atleast partially fill the torque converter.

It should take approx 11 quarts to fill the tranny and torque converter.
