Default Motor swap- 89 s-15 and 94 1500 4.3L tranny problems

We did a motor swap on my 94 k1500 4.3L and used a motor from a 89 s-15. Now we are having problems with the transmission. Our main question is if the torque converters are different- the s-15 was a 2wd and the 94 1500 is a 4wd. We can feel it click into gear but the truck doesn't go anywhere. The shaft was spinning because it grinded when we put it into park.
