do you mean in terms of pitch (notation) or in terms of timing (tempo)?
usually you build a track around an acapella rather than trying to make it fit an existing track

do one bar at a time
Just move the bass notes up the scale till it doesn't sound wrong. It's like beatmatching - when it stops sounding wrong, you know you have it right.
If you're really unable to do that, you can load the pella up in cubase variaudio or melodyne and it will tell you what notes the vocal is hitting. Pick from those notes for each bar I guess...
