REVISION:
On advice from commenter Walter Szempruch, I checked to see if I had installed the flywheel correctly.... I didn't :(
So I removed the engine, flipped the Flywheel 180deg and reinstalled.
I decided to replace this video with a new section that shows how to properly orient the flywheel.
here is a video that better shows why the orientation matters

Installation of Spigot bearing, Flywheel, and Clutch on a 1977 MGB roadster.
in this video we show methods for pressing the spigot bearing. in this case we had the wrong part purchased, but cut it down to the proper size.
Also shows a demonstration of how the Flywheel was resurfaced at the machine shop.
