Default Transmission Shaking

Ok, well I rebuilt my transmission, and when I took it out for the first drive it would make a grinding noise, like your powersteering pump does when it is low. Well after a few munits, when I put it in drive and gave it a little gas it would shake the whole car, like two gears were grinding. Has anyone have any idea of what this could be?
