First the belt. Make sure the belt tensionier is tightening the belt enough. Also, make sure the pulleys are free of glaze and not sticking.

As far as the trans, it could be acouple things. Since it was just rebuilt, I would return it to the people who did it and have them check the flywheel, torque converter... that is loose.

Let me know what you find.
