Default LQ9 pilot bearing install?

Does this look correct? I left the bearing my freezer overnight, set it in place and lined up a 15mm socket and tapped it into place. It went very easy. i just want to make sure that this is what it should look like when done.

thanks

S.O.B...found out that this is WRONG. LQ9 + Fbody T56 needs the Fbody Pilot bearing/bushing.

yes that is the wrong pilot bearing... if you install that bearing with a f body t56 you will either damage the transmission or crack the block when you go to tighten the bolts on the bellhousing
