ck the snout on the engine side of tc - is it a match to crank ?....large snout in a small crank ....or you didnt seat the tc in the tranny - have to turn it and push gently to completely seat it

I don't know if a C6 is the same, but I screwed up a C4 once by putting the input shaft in backwards. Turns out, both ends of the shaft fit into the transmission, but only one fits into the TC. Once I tightened everthing, the engine was seized, and the shaft was VERY stuck in the tranny...

Keep spinning the tc while you push it in. Some times you have to lift up on it while you do all that. Basically you have to line up the 2 sets of splines plus the cogs on the tc so theres 3 things to engage. If that makes sense.
