Default 408 install....motor wont line up!!!!

So i have my 408 mostly in the car but i cant seem to line the input shaft up to the back of the clutch. Any suggestions on how to make it line up properly?!

I assume you did use the alignment tool to ensure the disc and pilot bearing are lined up correctly? And you have the correct pilot bearing installed in the crank?

I did use the allignment tool for the clutch. as far as the pilot bearing goes, i order a monster stage 3 clutch from colorado speed and told them what i had going on for my setup so i would assume that they sent me the right pilot bearing.........
