A job well done. By the way, the only way to tell if the transmission is going to leak is to drive it a lot. Works for me.

I know it doesn't do you any good now, but when I mark something, I peen it with a small punch, or small chisel. Just a light tap with the hammer, you don't want to stretch the metal, just etch a thin line, or some small dots.

I bought two 3" long bolts that match the size of the bell housing bolts, cut the heads off, and used them as alignment studs. Just be careful not to break them off in the engine bell housing, trying to get the transmission bell housing onto them.

It's just like a pickup truck, just much bigger and heavier. 1. I used an engine hoist through the passenger door method, but a bar through the open windshield and back window will work. I wouldn't do it across the doors, it might be too much weight. Honestly, I don't know. 2. The clutch and...
