Last one I did was by myself, I cut the hex off a couple long bolts, threaded them into the bell, this helped the alignment and took a lot of load off me!
It takes gasoline to interest me.

Do as previously suggested, pry on the throwout fork to disengage the clutch a little than push the transmission in. If you used one of those plastic disc line-up tools they suck for alignment.

was this trans on this bell before? I agree with above. A 1/4 " is about the thickness of the bearing retainer and bolt heads preventing the teans from mating to the bell.

The OP clearly states "The engine, tranny, and bellhousing are factory original."
