Make sure you got the wires hooked up in the right order. Make sure all your plugs are torqued properly. Just double check everything. My gues is some wires are crossed giving that feeling that the trans is slipping... but in actuality its just misfiring.

I assume the black thing covering the plugs is the coil pack assembly on the straight six engine .If so it's held down by several bolts inline with the plugs.The plug boots stick straight down from this and it's very easy to miss a plug with one of the boots.Inspect and reinstall carefully and it will probally solve your problem.Also if your carefull you shouldn't need to disconnect the heater hoses only move them.
