I am trying to put a Muncie 4 speed behind the 327 for the Nomad..I put in a new pilot bearing,lined up the clutch,put the pressure plate & bell housing on ,put the tranny shaft in the hole and the transmission went in but about 1/2 " wouldn't go in.
I thought that I did something wrong so I took it all apart and made sure that everything was lined up,re installed everything and tried again..Still wouldn't go in.
I thought that maybe there was already a pilot bushing in the hole that I didn't see or maybe I had the clutch in backwards..So I pulled everything apart again. Nope..No 2nd bushing and the clutch is installed correctly.
I've taken it apart and put it together 3 times,checked and rechecked everything and I still cant get the transmission to go that last 1/2".Its an aluminum transmission so I don't dare the install the Trans bolts and tighten them up,I'm afraid of breaking an ear off the tranny.
The transmission was installed on a 327 before I got it..What could I be doing wrong??????
