I'll chime in too. If the front clutch was set up to tight, it is probably the problem. He mentioned something about creeping in neutral. The transmission kits usually come with different sized friction plates to set the free play. I have never had to use them, the plates that were .062 thick (four of them) work out best in the front clutch.

  I will chime in here. I am suspicious that the throttle pressure rod was not
  properly adjusted. This could lead to improper oil pressure as you press
  accelerator. Low oil pressure, the throttle down and the clutch pack will
  burn up. No go forward.
