well either way it sounds like the trans input shaft is still spinning like it connected to the engine. Ya know, like the clutch isn't fully releasing. So it could either be air in the hydraulics, bad hydraulics, bad pilot bearing, or maybe the slave cylinder needs to be shimmed closer to the clutch.

That could be the majority of your problem right there. A piece of shit clutch from Autozone thats made in China. Many of these parts are cheap and not built to spec, nevermind tolerance.
