Did you unbolt the torque converter?

take off the dust cover at the underside where the engine mates to the transmission. There three bolts the connect the torque convertor to the flexplate. Rotate the engine using a large breaker bar and socket on the crank bolt at the front of the engine to access all three bolts then you can separate the engine from the transmission
