I am having a difficult time separating a tranny from an engine i bought and i believe it is stuck in gear, how would i go about getting it out of gear to remove it, thanks a ton!

doesn't matter if it's in gear or not...at least not on a 5speed, although i'm not auto expert...
make sure you've got all the bolts undone (there are a coupe up top that are hard to get at with the engine in the car)
stick a prybar between the engine & tranny, work your way around and it should pop off!

thanks, i guess ill just have to pry it off, never messed with an auto before so i didnt know.
i have it most of the way off actually, just hard as hell to get the rest of the way.

you need to keep it level so the input shaft doesn't get wedged in and makes it more difficult to get off..........

yeah gear wont matter at all, just pull st straight back for like 5 inches then down.. you can be very violent in breaking it loose, ensure everything is clear.. harness, shifter, mount, drive shaft ect
