I'm throwing in the towel. From what I've read on this forum and a *73* manual I tried the following:
- Dropped the center linkage
- Turned the engine crank with a 1.25" socket
- Disconnected the nearest exhaust pipe, even though the pan hits on the K member far before the exhaust pipe when trying to rotate the pan.
- BFHammer
- Removed the torque converter dust shield (which involved removing the starter)
- Put the floor jack under the transmission housing to slightly lift the entire assembly
