3) I've read through countless write ups but does anyone have any words of wisdom?

I'll keep everyone posted on the progress!
1) You can make a lock yourself. Go to the local hardware store and get a piece/bar of steel (needs to be 8" long or so) and drill two holes. One hole will be big enough to bolt to the motor, the other hole slightly larger than the flywheel/clutch alignment pins. See attached photo.
2) Consider having the car level, it will make it a little easier aligning the bearing when you install it.
3) Don't drink any beer while doing this job.
