...In fact, I still have my gauges from the time I replaced the ZF in my '95/LT1. I remember Bill B mentioning it was important to be sure the ZF was properly aligned, but he didn't say (or I wasn't paying attention) what would happen if it wasn't aligned. Thanks for that bit of info.

I'll check it this w/e. (I gotta check to see that I have a good supply of bandaids and Aleve on hand.)
I'll let y'all know if that does the trick or not. Wish me luck!!
P.
