car moves forward for twenty feet then disengages, there is no reverse at all. Changed the torque converter and moved foward when cold but same conditions when warmed up.

Hi there,

You will have to get the line pressures tested as well as a diagnostic test done on the transmission electrics, this is sounding like a pump pressure related issue, start here.
