Oka so heres what my trans is doing. After i raced a 11 sec. cobalt ss (ahahaha) it was pushin 25 psi. My truck acted like it was bogging down a little so i threw it into N and stopped. Well It goes into park great and R is good. But when i put it into N it stays in R. and when i put it into D it goes into Park but still has a slight load on the motor.??????????????? im confused

I'm going off memory here, so I stand a good chance of being wrong, but I believe that reverse is the application of C3 and C5. First is C1 and C5. I think the C5 stays engaged in neutral as well. If you have reverse in neutral, it sounds like your C3 clutch pack is stuck together. It goes to park in drive because when it engages the C1 it acts like a transbrake because the C3 is still locked together. I had sort of the same thing happen to me when my C1 clutches got fried. I had drive and park, but neutral was also drive and reverse was park.
