Mr. Blake,
The mainshaft may be stuck in the pilot bearing.
Pry more.
Or move jacks so the two are the same.
Good Evening,

My clutch went bad a few weeks ago and I'm finally getting around to it.
Anyhow, I've got the engine and transmission disconnected, I've got the
engine supported (by a chunk of wood and a chain in the engine
compartment), I've got the transmission supported by a floor jack.  
The engine and the tranny are separated by about 1/8", but I can't seem
to get the tranny off the studs coming from the engine on the bottom.
What gives? Any ideas would be great.
Thanks,
Blake
