Welcome to the forums! You have a shift lock/unlock on the console, unless it is a column shift. It will allow you to move the shifter from park into neutral without turning the key on. It may have been disturbed. Can you locate that?

It is possible during the engine replacement, the cabling or linkage for the transmission was disturbed or not reconnected properly. I'd have that checked out by the rebuilder.

i disconnected the tranny linkage and tried to manually place it in park and still wont engage. added some fluid and still the same result. while the engine and transmission were out of the vehicle it was fine. wasnt until we jacked the whole chassis assembly back into the van that it was a problem
