Somethings wrong with my transmission
My dad had a guy put a new clutch in my 91' formula and ever since we got it back you can floor it and you can hear the transmission hit the bottom of the car and the stick bounces back and forth.It also jerks when you floor it. Any ideas on what's wrong with the transmission. Any replys are appreciated..

I hate it when I pay for work that turns out to be sloppy.
My 1st thought is to look at the rubber mount under the tranny. It was probably not reassembled properly. Is crossmember tight to body?
Should have a stud and fastening nut. Components vary according to car. Also, is the torsion bar properly fastened? Cannot be too awful a problem. See if all fasteners in area are tight. Too bad that you don't have before pictures for reference.
