LSX Block & T56 Magnum
Question; does the pilot bearing sit flush with the outer edge of the crank or does sit back into the crank by about .200"? went to install the tranny and the shoulder on the input shaft hits the pilot bearing. Plenty of room to "push" the bearing back but not sure if its correct, previous old school chevy's i installed them flush.

Pictures would help.

If that's a Quicktime RM-8020 in your build thread and you have a GM application Tremec T56 Magnum, (not a hybrid,) then you should be running the small (same size as early SBC/BBC) pilot bearing driven in flush. A different pilot bearing, bellhousing, or trans. maindrive length could skew things from there.
