Default Totally frustrated right now...New TKO won't mount up after 3 hour battle.
I just wrestled with a new tko 600 for 3 hours and it wont slide all the way into the bellhousing. My back is killing me...I'm worn out for now.

I have a short input shaft tko and I measured the input shaft length and compared that to the overall depth from the bell surface to the crank pilot recess and these dimensions check out just fine. I aligned the clutch with a dummy input shaft....the tranny goes in but then stops about 5/16" from going all the way home.

I have never had this much trouble mounting a tranny onto a block...this really has me baffled.
