Good evening.
The torque converter has to seat three times. When you reinstalled the trans, chances are you only had two seated. That would still give you a thread or two for the nuts to tighten. If that was the case, then when you tightened up the bell housing bolts you jammed the torque converter into the nose of the transmission.
Most likely you damaged the two ears the converter needs to engage to turn the front pump. You will need to replace the front pump from the damage. That would also account for all the noise.
