That's kind of what I was thinking too.
Rector, jack the rear of the car up and see if you can rotate the rear tires with the transmission in neutral. Make sure you have the parking brake released when you do it of course.
Another thought...check all the bolts holding the transmission to the engine. I suppose a misaligned tranny could be binding the engine. Long shot.
