Default Tourqe tube trans install?

I ran into a snag this afternoon trying to join the tube to the bell housing. Right now I'm about 6 inches away. Does any one have any tips or tricks that might make this easier?

Yeah I might have to give in a call for help. So far I've done the clutch job all by my self. I found someone's write up where they put a c clamp on the tube and bellhousing but it almost felt like it might break it.

I got the exedy stage one kit with lighten flywheel. I paid 575 for the kit which seemed like the best deal I could find. Man it hasn't been fun trying to line it up. My c clamp broke this morning trying to pull it together
