I apologize for being late to the game here but the one question I have is are you trying to get the bellhousing in spec simply because its out of spec, or are you doing it because the trans does not want to slide in freely?
I ask this because its a lot of work to do what you are contemplating simply to get it within specification. One way to see if you actually have a problem is to make up some pins out of long bolts, and install on the bellhousing, then install the trans on the pins and see if it slides into the new pilot bushing with ease. If it does, I think you are going to be just fine. if it jams up, wont install because the center is so far off, then you might have to do the modifications or try another bellhousing.
