I did not remove the flywheel or install a new clutch. I probably should have
except that I have no problems in there, so I didn't do that or replace the
seal. So all the parts that are on the engine are unchanged. If the splines on
the tranny do not match up and will not allow mating, then I'm just screwed.

denis: Are you sure you have the bell housing clearanced enough? Did you
have the pressure plate off? If so, did you make sure you had the clutch
aligned correctly? Did you put in a new clutch disc? If so did you check
before installation to make absolutely certain the splines on the disc move
smoothly on to the mainshaft before you installed it? The splines on clutch
discs are not always exactly correct and will not slide onto the mainshaft and
you will get exactly the problem you are experiencing. Something's binding and
you need to find out what without forcing the engine in.

I quit and spent a normal evening like a normal person.
Back at it today. if I don't get it in today, either a bunch of you
geniuses will have to come up and figure it out or I'm not going to Galveston.
Andrew is pretty close by, but he has this real life with a cute wife and
the cute little Emily, so I don't think I'll beg him to bail me out. I should
be able to fix this. GRRR!
