did a neutral drop...(smart i know)and now wont shift...there is a little hole about the size of a nickel right behind bell housing right in the middle

I'm sure the tranny is dead.
Try www.car-part.com (http://www.car-part.com), input your vehicle info along with the state your in, and you should get some hits on local salvage yards that have used transmissions for your vehicle.
I use that site all the time.

Look into a Jasper reman which has a 3 year 100,000 mile warranty.Used transmissions usually have a 30 to 90 day warranty if they go out.
