Most of the shift levers on the trans have several holes so make sure the setup is in the correct hole for the shifter you use. This is the most common problem.
If the issue is still the same and will hot hold park I think the parking paw spring loaded engage lever inside the trans is not placed correctly. This can easily be fixed by pulling the pan only and working on it in the car.
Try and see.
If the trans works other than park the linkage inside is probably the issue if the shifter linkage is correct.
Remember to use high gear to check the setup then to Park.
Good Luck and if you still have the issue I can walk you through the fix on the internals on the phone when you are under the car looking at it if needed.

Thanks for the information 63corvette. It sounds more like the pall problem as every other gear is dead on. I have a friend who lives just down the road who has a transmission shop who will help me for free. He has about 25 years experinece with trannys so I'll take it to him as I don't have much space to work on it.
