Make sure there aren't alignment dowels in the engine AND trans side of the same hole, just in case.
And you can get a larger gap on one side than the other because you're not aligning them straight when you're trying to mate them. It's easier with such a light transmission to place the engine crank pulley - down and install the transmission vertically, at least for me.
