I went back at it this morning using the 410Customs method and thought I had it. But it just wouldn't budge that last inch or so. Pulled the transmission back out to make sure everything was aligned. Clutch disc and pressure plate hadn't move...still centered on the pilot bearing. Then, for grins, I got the original pilot bearing to see if it would expose any issues with the input shaft...everything smooth with no visible issues. Went to slide the pilot bearing on the end and this is what I found...

That's the original bearing so it should have slid straight on...barely made it past inner diameter. Unless...it's not the same input shaft. At least that's my theory. Will have to call the shop where we did the remanufacture/rebuild.

Jamman, Would welcome the help. I'd even smoke a brisket and provide beverages of your choice.

The joys of restoring a vehicle....
