Clutch Install

We're doing an install of a stage 3 clutch and had a question. We installed the clutch and flywheel, and used the alignment tool. Our trouble is that the transmission won't fully seat against the engine block. We get it about a quarter of an inch from seating fully. The spines seem to be lined up but doesn't want to budge any further. Any suggestions?

Welcome to ye ol forum -

You might try jacking up/pulling up the front of the engine.
