Kurt,
I'm glad you were not hurt because of this gaff. You could have motored off down the road and....
When you take the car back out on the road, listen for any unusual noises from the trans.
If you hear any, it may indicate a misalignment between the trans and engine mounts. To correct, just loosen the 4 engine carrier bolts on the cross bar top, then retorque to 29 ft/lbs.
