HELP! when i drive my car it seems to keep going and wont slow when i let off the gas

i have a 1991 camaro with a 3.1 v6 and a 700r4 tranny with a b&m shift kit. when i drive the car it seems when i let off the gas the car still stays at the same rpm or goes down a little bit but stays engaged and keeps pulling the car as if it were on cruise control. but i disconnected my cruise from the throttle body so this isnt the prob. any suggestions? PLEASE HELP ME!

The overrun clutch allows the car to coast when the manual shaft is in the O/D position. Selecting a lower gear will allow engine braking.
