   The first time I installed my transmission,  I allowed the weight of 
the transmission to hang briefly on the input shaft as I aligned 
things.  Big mistake.  I caused the friction plate to get slightly bent 
and caused the clutch to not disengage.  After that I used long(6") 
studs in the upper 3 holes across the top of the rear engine plate to 
hang the transmission on while getting everything to slide together.  
Not sure that's your problem, but it's something to think about.  John
