Thanks guys...ya we didn't pull but a small amount, I told my Dad this didn't make sense so we dropped it back out. I was thinking it should be butter if the stars are aligned right. It is good to know sometimes it is hard and sometimes easy because the point it is should just slide right in.
OK here are some pics. Quick question, should I be able to turn the clutch disc at all or is the light pressure on it from pressure plate enough to cause a small amount of friction. I'll pull pressure plate back off just to be safe and redo.

Sorry answered this question...had my thoughts backwords.
Hey guys, believe I have found the error of my ways! It isn't in yet but I took the day and did other things then took a more relaxed look at things. I'm actually glad it didn't go in because I made a rookie mistake.
Once I get it in and running I'll give an up and post all my parts and costs.

Good Thinking. When I was running into difficulties getting my tranny in the second time I was fit to be tied, walked away until the next day and it went right in.
Butter! If done right putting the transmission back in is a piece of cake! Doing it myself last night I got it to sync up and ready to pull down the bolts in 20 mins. I just turned the crank and on the 3rd attempt she slid right in. Tightening the bolts down takes time but that's cool with me.
In the home stretch now. I'm taking it slow because my neck is hurt but the rest should go OK. I have a new slave to hook up and bleed, we'll see how that goes.
The first time I start the car I'm sure I'll be nervous. Thanks everyone for your help, the rookie moves on.
