L32 3800 to SM 465. V6 Camaro bell housing from early 90s, Later 3800 Camaro flywheel. Novak adjustable throw-out bearing

Obviously something isn't right here??.

Its the bell that they show in the 3800 thread on pirate as the one to swap to GM transmissions. Did I get the wrong bell housing? Ill assume that the sleeve the TOB rides on should be all the way to the PP and even an adjustable bearing isnt going to take up that massive air gap. and ill assume the pilot bearing isn't supporting the input shaft.. I put it together because my throw out bearing length was huge and I though I was doing something wrong. Turns out I was right and just screwed up somewhere else.
probably should of just gotten a 5.3 and 4l60e like everyone else does.

Any ideas what might be wrong or what I can do to fix it?

If it's using a standard Chevy ball stud they do come in adjustable versions.
