Dave,
Here is what I have done to install my transmission and it can be done by yo=
urself.=20
1. =46rom the rear of the engine, remove that top center stud that bolts the=
 transmission to the block. Take it to your local hardware store and buy the=
 longest bolt you can find in that thread size.=20
2.  Cut the head off the long bolt you just bought and round that end so you=
 end up with a stud and screw that into that upper center hole in the block.=

3. Position the transmission so you can slide ii on to that stud and push it=
 forward. The transmission input shaft will be lined up with the clutch disk=
 and you should just have to rotate the driveshaft yoke to send it home.
