Transmission install 200

I am in the middle of an engine swap for my 1981 Volvo 264. I got the b230ft in and running mated to the m46 tranny but found that the clutch did not disengage. This was because I installed it backwards. I pulled the tranny out from under and fixed the issue but I found that I cannot install the tranny back in because the engine won't angle down far enough to get the receiving shaft past the clutch fingers. Either I'm installing the tranny wrong or the engine needs to tilt down more. When taking the tranny out, the weight of the tranny helped tilt the flywheel side down to get the tranny to pass the tunnel. I tried loosening the engine mounts to no avail. I could not find a picture to help describe this but if there is any confusion, just ask.
