360 instal, going on 3 days, need help

Great tips guys, thanks for your advice. I'm positive and encouraged again. I'm gonna get it in, today I pray. You've given me some new ideas.

I used a cheap plastic clutch alignment tool and didnt feel real good about it. I may re-do that process, and then I'm gonna try the other ideas mentioned.

Will get back to you after I get that sucker in after work today.

PS - I think it is the shaft that doesn't want to get into the pilot bushing... but its probly that I'm not lining it up right
