Ever since my tranny was replaced, the car never feel the same. It jerks around once in a while on mine car too. Take it easy on break in period. It might be better after you put on a couple of thousand miles.

I thought the jerky thing is from the torque converter. Is this something that happens when you drive and let go of the gas pedal? Sometimes if the car is crusing and your going up or down the hill, there tends to be some jerkiness I think.

put the car is SS, leave it in 2nd and take it up to 40. let off and then hit the gas again a few times.. especially on hills. is this the slight jerkiness you're talking about? if so, that's normal.. it'll do it on any manual car too
