Question Reinstalled engine, horrible noise when shifting into Park

Finally got the replacement engine back in . Testing before I drive it (yeah found two leaks). But one noise I can't figure out. Put it into drive, then reverse. Seems OK (not moving car yet). Put it into Park and get an awful grinding / clicking noise, like I am trying to put it in Park while moving (the car is stationary). Turn off engine, restart, no noise. Repeat process, noise again.

Any ideas?

1982 110 engine, automatic transmission.

You do have the driveshaft installed? If not, the tailshaft will spin and make the horrible ratcheting noise.

My wife says it's a male thing... focused on the task at hand, the stuff one knows perfectly well (but not related to the task at hand), go out the window (or should I said, out of the brain?).

Transfer case in neutral... thanks all... it took 2 seconds to shift it back into drive. Feeling very dumb.

Now trying to get to the water leak.

Toka:

At least you didn't try to drive it with no water in the rad or a driveshaft off!
