Default Need help with clutch allignment...

I was putting my clutch on my new engine, and I just did it by eye, I didn't have an extra gearbox input shaft to line it up right. Is there any other ways you guys recomend to line this up before I put in the engine and find out it wont bolt up to the tranny? I did a search, but obviously came up with no luck. Thanks for any advice in advance.

A clutch alignment tool. Any auto parts store will have one.

I have found this not to be true. People talked to me as if I was out of my mind when I asked for one. Sure they came with the kits they sold, but separately, no sir.

Try doing it by eye as you already did, or I've heard of trying to use the handle end of a screwdriver.

middle finger has many uses, aligning a clutch is one of them.
