Decided to pull motor without taking out the trans first and now I cannot get the trans to separate from the motor. It seems i have enough clearence. but it just wont separate. Could it be the input shaft is engaged pr the clutch fork is on or something. any help would be appreciated

 

Do you have both starter bolts out?

 

Pull out the clutch fork and make sure you have the upper starter bolt out

 

One more vote for the starter bolt.

It goes all the way through into the bellhousing.

 

If all the bolts are out...rubber mallet time.

 

if all the bolts are out... clutch fork

 

Thanks to all. Yes both starer bolts are out. the top one was an SOB! Ill try pulling the clutch fork out I havent done that yet. thanks again

 

If the clutch fork is still in it's not coming out.

 

Did you drop the engine on the sub frame 3"
