Bell Never Aligned

The best way to resolve any misalignment issues is match the Block and Bellhousing in a fashion that coincides with your Crankshaft centerline and that's most accurate with a line bore type fixture. It's above my pay grade as to the tooling needed but that's far more accurate than doing it in a car or even an assembled engine...

I did an in-car once and it help alleviate a 1-2 shift issue but I never felt I was accurate enough with it and had I went back through that motor project the machine shop was going to centerline it. This was also with a blowproof Bellhousing also..
