I have removed all the bolts but the transmission will not separate from engine. It's as if it is glued together. How do I get them apart?

Hello, thanks for visiting 2CarPros.
It's fairly common for the transmission to hang up on the dowel pins as well as the input shaft to stick in the clutch. The solution is to rock the transmission sided to side at the rear while prying between it and the transmission once the gap opens some. Also make sure there isn't pressure on the transmission as this will hang it up as well.
