im assuming your doing this on the ground.
get 3 people under the car and rock the shit out of it as you push it in. also you can have someone grab the crank pulley with a bigass wrench and rotate the motor very slightly back and forth as you push in. there is no trick, just keep trying. took me an hour or two to put my rx7 trans back in with just me and one other guy. its a bitch but straightforward.
