Sounds like you got a junk transmission.....or you didn't clean out the ATF cooler and leftover debris from the previous trans failure contaminated the new one.

Oooh, I didn't even think about that having a cable....durrr LOL
it's been a long time since I saw a car that old
Gotta synchronize movement of trans lever exactly with the throttle
