Trouble getting a slant six in the car

Don, I've done it like that in the past too. For some reason as age has caught up to me, it just seem easier to do it all together.
I had the engine bolted in Honey's '64 Dart when I rebuilt the 4 spd transmission. On trans install, I couldn't keep from bumping the clutch plate out of alignment with the transmission input shaft. I invited my body builder neighbor over to lend a hand. He holds up the transmission with one hand and depresses the clutch fork with his other hand so the clutch plate would float on the transmission input shaft. Transmission hooked right up. The neighbor comes out from under the car, his face a little pink and the veins sticking out on his neck and he says, "That was a good one!" I was speechless...:eek:
