It might be possible to pry or use a cheater on the clutch fork to release it enough to go ahead & get it in so you can clear things up & then work on the linkage.

Sounds like the inputshaft isn't going into the pilot bushing. Try wiggling the rear of the trans in a circular motion while pushing it forward to see if you can get it to go. If you disengage the clutch now, the disc will fall from the weight of the trans and be even further off.

I agree with 48bigtrucks -- I recently hung my sm420 back on the motor and what he describes is exactly what it took to get the tranny to go the last inch. I didn't mess with the clutch at all. And it took two of us -- one guy wiggling the tranny (me) and the other guy trying to get the bolts in and started on the topside.

Keep at 'er -- you'll get it!

if you have access to a junk transmission take the input shaft out of it and you have a ready made tool to aline clutch and pressure plate. also concur with 48 bigtrucks as thats the approximate depth of the pilot bushing hole.
