Anyone with a Type 65 or Nippy will know the fun of getting the engine in with the deep sump.
Gearbox has to go in first.
The engine can not be tilted in it has to be dropped in slightly nose down the bell housing studs be tight against the bulkhead.
At this point I am with Bob and leave the cover plate loose till its all lined up.
I gave up trying to pre line up the splines years ago I just rotate things till it slips into place.
