Scott,

You are probably done by now but:

I have done this many times with a scissors jack but a transmission jack 
would be great.

There are two dowel bolts that are fatter than the others. These are used 
to align the transmission. The usual problem with getting the transmission 
'in' is aligning the first motion shaft with the clutch disk either 
angularly or with the spline's. Do not force this, be patient and use the 
clutch tool to align the clutch disk.
