LT1 T56 Shift Fork T-Pivot Install Help

I just installed my LT1 T56 and realized that I forgot to install the little T-pivot piece that the clutch fork pivots on. Has anyone had any success installing this thing after the transmission is installed? I'll have to reach into the clutch master cylinder opening pretty far to get the thread started and have been unsuccessful so far. Just wondering if anyone has any tricks for getting this done? I'm really trying to avoid dropping the transmission again to install this little part!

Here's the part I need to install:

You have to install the fork at the same time. And the fork is going to cockblock tool access in the best of circumstances.
