Yea I did. The bellhousing is from a manual style clutch too so i had to make a bracket for the slave to bolt to. Even with the slave off, the clutch still doesnt engage. Its like the clutch is pressed all the time.

Are you sure the clutch disk was installed properly? If it were in backward it might appear extra thick to the pressure plate preventing it from releasing? And yes my T19 clutch fork snaps right in (also flew out once on its own, but that's another story) The fork was one of the last things to install when I put the trans back in.

Yes, I'm sure the clutch disk is in the right way. I make sure several times before putting the pressure plate on. I've seen one put in backwards before and didnt want to make that mistake myself. I knew it would take some work to get this right since im swapping from a 302 to 460 and trying to use as many left over parts as possible. Just hope i can get it going soon.
