Im having problems bolting the tranny and the engine. I recently bought a new fly wheel and now the clutch isn't lining up :-(. What's an ideal combination to make the damn thing work? Frustration is now kicking in, ugh!!!
I know I have had fun putting the gearbox on the mr2 engine in the past. I thought it was a mismatch on the input shaft / clutch plate, turns out it just really needs to be centred.
Try the clutch plate on the input shaft, and try offering up the gearbox without the clutch and flywheel fitted.
Should give you some idea where things are catching.
