Default cannot separate engine from tranny TRIED EVERYTHING

Hey guys,
I am removing my transmission and cannot separate the MANUAL transmission from the D16Z6 engine.
I have tried a BFH, there is not even a slight gap so it is impossible to use a pry bar, have tried wiggling it and twisting it and shaking it. NOTHING WORKS.
I am using an engine hoist and a jack to remove the tranny.
Please help
Thanks,

AND YES, I HAVE REMOVED EVERY SINGLE BOLT
which include 6 bolt connecting the engine to the transmission

I would double check to make sure all of the bolt are out. Other than that, they can be a real PITA to get out, and to just keep trying. Good luck

You got all of the bolts. There are only 6 engine-to-trans bolts, so now you just need to keep prying on it.

nope prying going to be the only way to get it off. it shouldn't be that difficult. try a fork, and see if that helps any. good luck.
