I'll also just say I was convinced my transmission was not being blocked - right until I found the shift support arm wedged above it. Might be worth double checking there's nothing that could be keeping you from getting the transmission completely level?

Good luck!
Thanks! I left my trans in neutral so I can’t tell much by spinning the output shaft. And I feel like it’s close enough that the input shaft must be at least partially into the clutch. Maybe not.

I’m pretty sure there’s nothing in the way. My shifter carrier is totally out of the car.

It’s good to know though that it’s not supposed to be that difficult to get it fully seated.
