um, maybe if you gave more details it would be better. are you saying that you just got the bellhousing it about 1.5cm away from the motor?

You need to unbolt the transmission crossmember from the body, or the trans wont go anywhere. Did you do this yet?

You pulled the driveshaft off, unbolted the crossmember and unhooked the clutch pedal right? Also, did you take your shifter handle off?

If everything is removed that should be, you may just need to use a pry bar a little. Once the trans is off the dowels it should be loose then you have the fun of twisting and turning the thing to get it out. My suggestion is once you have the trans out of the car, cut off the right ear on the trans. Its pointless because no wiring harness goes on that side and about all it does is make install and removal harder.
