How to remove auto tranny from ST215 block Options

[jacubillo]

Hello,

I'm currently dissasembling a ST215 3sgte engine I bought a year ago. Right now I'm separating the auto AWD tranny from the block but it's not comming apart. I already unbolted and removed all the screws attaching the transmission housing to the engine block but it's simply not separating.
Are there any components inside the transmission that I should unbolt or should the tranny come apart as a sigle unit?

I can post some pictures if required. Thnkz in advance for all the help!

Hello Guys,

I was just able to remove the tranny from the engine block and luckily nothing was damaged. The "guide studs" held everything in place so nothing was forced. Thanks for the suggestions!

To let you know more about me... I´m not a mechanical guy. I´m into electronics and this project is something I´m doing to learn more about engines. I already build and tested a megasquirt ecu to use in my car but engine-wise I´m not really sure how to proceed.

My engine was bought with a damaged turbo due to a car crash and I wanted to know what would you suggest me to check/change before installing the engine in my car.
If this was your engine, what are the next steps?

I hope I can create a nice thread here about what I learn to help newbies (like me) get into these great engines!
