Hey guys, long time no post/SC action for me. A quick recap on me. Got out of the Marines Feb '07, struggled finding/getting a decent job, and one finally came along and I love it! Due to time/money I haven't loved up on my SC until yesterday. Been sitting for nearly 2 years with little to no attention. Now im ready to get back into the SC game and have some fun! BUT!!!! As always with these cars, theres always something............
For those that do not remember I put the 03 stang tranny in my 94 SC.

I was going to sell my SC last winter when trying to find a decent job and struggling a bit with money. I had it for sale for 2 weeks in front of my house, the day the first snow fell I put it back in the garage where it has sat for nearly 2 years.
While pulling it from the front yard, around back to the garage, I had to really give her some RPMS in order for it to move, but it did go, I then smelt some really nasty burnt fluid smell, didn't think much of it, parked it.
Fast forward to yesterday.
I pulled my baby out of the garage, dusted off the dust, and 2" of sawdust(home remodeling) and preceded to change oil, find and fix tranny leak, change tranny filter and put new fluids in etc. When I pulled the pan, there was roughly 3 quarts (of 5) of tranny fluid were left(from the leak), and at the bottom of the pan was lots of burnt sticky fluid, and on top of that was lots of red good fluid. No metal flakes, nothing. Got that all done, started her up, ran real rough, then the computer started learning again, and it smoothed out, then ran perfect. Thought " HELL YA" lets go for a cruise around the block and that quickly turned to .
In reverse I have to crank her to nearly 2800RPM for it to even move, and not move very fast or powerfully, just kinda glides, and in drive it has to be over 3000RPM for it to even budge a small amount, I doubt it would go over the cracks in my driveway, is how powerless it seems.
So my question is, is my 03 stang tranny done for, with less than 3000 miles on it? Do I need to start looking for a new one?
Whats my diagnosis/options here?
