Need help with water tranny

I have the tranny back together, it all fit well and assembled easily.
While reviewing how to connect the shift linkage back together, I
noticed that the shaft that enters the tranny has a divit which is
used to secure the piece that will connect to the shifer shaft below.
The position of the tranny shaft will not allow me to rotate to the
correct position for final assembly and adjustment.
If I am reading everything right, the tranny cover must be removed
again so that this shift lever may be adjusted before assembly of the
front cover so that the divit is at 12 o'clock.

Is there any other way to move this shaft to the correct position
before I start the tear down?

Thanks,
Marty in WI

Thanks for getting back to me on my questions about putting our water
tranny back together.
I have it apart again and will try to position the shifting rod with
the gear shifting levers inside (yes the one with the hole like the
download you put on) before re-fitting the front cover.
I can find nothing on the subject of what is required for the
instillation, and the maint manual is no help at all.
Are there any techinical articles or process type sheets that are
written about our cars? I am unable to find any.
Thanks,
Marty in WI
