Help me get my KA tranny back in... PICS!

[Nikeboy355]

I pulled the tranny out to replace the clutch... But I can't get it back in...
I'm doing this in my garage and by myself which sucks but I'm going to get a friend over to help me maneuver the tranny around as soon as possible...

I pushed the pilot bearing into place but how far does it need to go into the block/crank?... Right now I have it flush but maybe I need to push it in farther?... I checked that it fit the main shaft on the tranny and it was perfect...

The clutch was installed with a clutch alignment tool ofcourse...
I've tilted the motor back as well...

For the last two days I've been benchpressing the tranny off of my chest and stomach to get it into place but it just won't go in... I've been using the jack and tried to lift it from the front and the back but it just won't go...

It seems like the pilot bearing has such a perfect fit with the main shaft on the transmission that you can't be off by 1 degree...

I also have solid engine mounts if that makes a difference...

Anybody got any ideas or tricks... I've done this with my SR a couple of times but the truth is that I didn't check for the pilot bearing...

pics coming...
