Moved to an appropriate section for you.

Which clutch fork are you using? Throw out bearing and clutch/flywheel/pressure plate all installed properly?

If the car worked fine before the transmission swap and the ONLY thing you did was swap transmissions ONLY, I'm going to say it's either:
1. Wrong shift fork
2. Bad throwout bearing

I was going to mention something about the shift linkage, but like I said, if the car worked and drove fine before the tranny swap, I wouldn't think the shift linkage would be an issue. Out of curiosity, what transmission did you swap in? And you CAN improperly install a clutch system if things aren't torqued properly.
