Default Pilot bearing to main gear drive fit

Can anyone tell me how much clearance I should have between the bore of the flywheel pilot bearing and the end of the transmission main gear drive? I have both a new bearing and a new drive, and right now there is only .0003 (three ten-thousandths) clearance between them. I can get the bearing on the shaft, but it requires some persuasion. I'm just afraid that when I'm laying on my back under the car in a snowbank, bench-pressing the transmission up into place and using my foot to shove the transmission into the clutch plate/pilot bearing, that it's not going to want to go.
