My weekend project this weekend was a clutch replacement on my friends spitfire.
After pulling out the transmission and replacing the clutch (No problem after 
we figured out 
how to properly lift the engine/trans assembly).  We have hit a difficult spot.
The new clutch is in, but we cannot get the transmission to slide in.  Is there 
any trick to this, or just lots of pushing, jiggling, and rocking?  Also we 
have a
clutch alignment tool, which we used while bolting in the new clutch, but are 
unsure of what it actually does.  Can anybody enlight me?  I'd like to get the 
gargare space back for my own spitfire.
