66 2a 109.
After months of staring at the bell housing, I not wanting to tackle replacing the clutch plate I finally did it. I slid everything back and replaced the clutch and what not and put it all back together... that was the easy part. I cannot for the life of me manage to get the main shaft married back up with the engine. Everything is in line, all the splines match up, ie. pressure plate and clutch plate. The closest I can get is about 1.5" from the bell housing holes. It just seems that the shaft is getting hung up somewhere and I'm so close to getting the bell housing back bolted on but the last inch seems impossible. Does anyone have any tricks or suggestions on getting the shaft to marry up with the engine?
