Default removing Roush tvs1900 snout?

to anyone who has taken the snout off. i know there is a few of you. any tricks? all bolts out and it wont budge. i dont wanna take out the BFH and beat on it. maybe heat up the mating surface to soften the sealer?

thanks

I believe TIM Z said it was a pain in the ***, but it can be done. Might want to get some info from him.

It just has crankcase sealer and two locating pins. It is tight, but it will come off with some help. Dont use anything to pry it apart! The two surfaces are machined almost perfect- if you gouge one of them you will have problems...
