Also, the damge to clutch disk hub is probably from them ramming the transmission in not propertly aligned to engine, or they didnt use the clutch alignment tool properly in first place.

Don't go back there. I did my transmission twice on my back and I never forgot the tow top bolts. Yes, hard to get at, but not impossible. A shop with a hoist it's trivial.

Those two bolts would'nt casue misalingment unless the rest of the mount bolts were loose.

Dont go back there again.
A few questions...
The grease was placed by a friend as we were taking pictures. I noticed he put grease. Is that even recommended for the input shaft? Will wipe it off before reinstalling everything if it isn't

Assuming it's the CSC overextension that caused problems, was this avoidable. Is there some adjustable mechanism that can prevent this, or are these parts simply not compatible with one another?
