Depending on what kind of shape your transmission was in before this happened could have an effect on how much damage was done. From what I've got from your post, you took it out right away once is started to grind, etc. Hopefully there wasn't much damage done.

Don't worry about getting a new transmission. They are one of those things that you can forget about until it actually goes. If it runs find and shifts smooth, you're good to go.... Just don't do it again! :)
