on my 7mgte, i had to pull it with tranny to replace rod/main bearings. im having a helluva time getting the tranny mated back with the engine, the spline will NOT go back together through the clutch assembly/flywheel. i dont know whats up, itll go part of the way then get stuck, like the clutch bearing wasnt lined up or something. tried rotating the spline by hand through the r154's driver side hole, but to no avail. any ideas? hoping to get the fucker running again by deadline of friday if i can find a battery and air filter :p

thanks again guys,
Drew

Take the pressure plate and clutch off the motor and slide them on the transmission input shaft then bolt tranny to motor. Now you can bolts the pressure plate to the flywheel through the inspection plates.
