the new clutch and flywheel are in, but i cant ge the transmission back onto the block. does anyone have any tips or any way of easily reinstalling this?

 

this is on a 5th gen btw.

 

Heres a tip

It came off, it can go back on.

 

really!?!? oh god im so stupid! i had no idea that the h22 transmission i was trying to put on my h22 engine would actually go on! what would i do without your great advice?

 

whats the problem you're encountering? do u have support under it like a jack to slide it back on?

 

lol, its a bitch to get it on when the enigine out of the car. They have engine lifts which make it a breeze. You really have to jiggle and wiggle it on there.

 

problem solved! i swear honda makes it this hard on purpose.

 

i know you already did it but i always twist mine while pushing, normally slides right in after that.

 

HAHAHA! In your face anyone who doubted! Car has started and ran and revved! M2A4 trans put it a 5th gen in around 20 hours with a floor jack and jack stands. Last thing is to bleed the clutch since there is no pressure, but HAH! It's done. Thanks anyone who put in information. I'll probably make a thread to try and answer all the questions I asked for a reference.

 

Plus an exeddy stage 1 clutch and fidanza 8lb flywheel installed.
