The air flow in the vents sounds like a vacuum leak. I guess it is possible that while you were inside the dash, you could have disconnected one of the vacuum lines.

Not sure about the tranny shifting. I am sure someone will speak up on that one.

Vacuum lines may effect the shift points of an auto tranny, but I'm not really familiar with the autos in these trucks.

As for you hearing the air and it not pushing flow out the vents, I'm guessing you either kinked a HVAC line or it somehow got disconnected during reassembly.
