Thanks for the replies. I did replace the pilot bearing...genuine Ford part...test fitted it on the input shaft before installation. I picked up a couple 10mm x 100mm extensions today...used them in the bottom two bell housing to engine bolt holes. I'm pretty sure the bell housing (attached to the transmission) is properly lined up as both moved freely with just a about 1.5 inches to go. But I can't get the bell housing lined up with the block dowels...just barely off. I'm going to pull it back out tomorrow and realign everything and try again. The hardest part is getting that damn bell housing over the crossmember...the space at the top by the firewall is so tight I have to maneuver it a mm at a time to properly clear it. This would certainly be easier with an extra set of hands.
