LOL glad you got er out. My first clutch took my friend and I a couple days... we we're like 16, it was the early 90's places like this on the internet hadn't been invented yet. I had to take advice from my drunk *** home mechanic neighbors... I learned a lot to say the least lol.

Alright now I can’t get the transmission in. Yes I used an alignment tool on the clutch. If I spin the crankshaft pully, I can get the output on the transmission to spin. I just need some helpful insight .

Had the same problem my first time.. Putting in a transmission I mean. Just keep trying.. the splines have to engage just right. You can rock the transmission from side to side (radially) while pushing the transmission in to get the teeth to engage, or you can try spinning the transmission in very small increments from where it mates to the driveshaft. If it doesn't go in, take a break and come back to it when you are fresh. It will take a little force, but not too much or you could damage something. Also, make sure the engine and transmission are axially aligned. This means titling your transmission jack UP towards the engine, and tilting your engine DOWN towards your transmission. How you do that is up to you.. I just yanked on my passenger test pipe (which I left installed) to bring the engine down.
Dummy check before it comes together: Did you lubricate the input shaft? Clutch fork contact surfaces? Throwout bearing? Clean the new pressure plate / flywheel surfaces with brake cleaner? Loctite the Crank bolts? Install new pilot bushing? Replace throwout bearing? Loctite isn't really required, but good practice. If you don't loctite the crank bolts, you are supposed to lube them with motor oil for the torque spec to be meaningful. Hope you get it figured out.
