i've seen a thread posted here a while back with a similar problem and a come along was used to pull the trans off, with everything supported and the hoist attached to the rear axle and the the back of the trans, a few clicks and it will come off.

it can be kinda tight i think i use a pry bar... but be careful and dont break the bell housing i think i pryed where the starter goes in.... it will come off just take your time and dont force it to hard.... put some straps or something under the trans so it doesnt hit the ground when it falls out... or leave a couple bolts in.. just leave them backed out that away it doesnt fall out...

You have to much binding on the dowel pins between trans and the motor. Are using a trans jack if so start adjust tilt vertical and horzona. When we did Devens motor swap on his truck it did the same thing. If you have a lot of stress on those pins it won't come apart.
