Where I sit now is that the transmission is being suspended by ratchet straps off of the 4X8 piece of lumber that's holding up the engine. Those straps appear to be giving me the added swing and maneuverability that I need to help line everything up.
I'm going to get back to it soon. Only this time, I'm going attempt using a few new ideas that I've gathered from various forums.
First off, I'm going to level the engine. Then, I'm going to move the flywheel by hand in an attempt to line up the splines. If that fails, I may even attempt to get longer bolts which have the same diameter as the bell housing bolts; but with the heads cut off and slots cut in at the ends. That way if everything does line up, I can just back them out with a regular screwdriver.
