So i recently bought ISIS Short Throw Shifter V2 upon trying to install it, the stock shifter control housing seem to be stuck. Really blows cause all i need to do is get this off and i can install the new shifter. Just a little history the Trans was rebuilt before and instead of using the OEM gasket we used toyota gasket maker on it. Seem to be a good idea at the time but fuck the housing is F_in stuck.

I tired knocking it with a flat head screw driver and hammer, also tired leveraging it of at the groove of the housing still no go it doesn't even move an inch.

anyone with some ideas ....i was thinking of using a heat gun to warm up the area and try to leverage it off again.
