help t-5 swap

I am converting my t-5 68 mustang to a cable clutch, but I am having trouble geting the bellhousing off, the transmission is out, I have taken off as many bolts as I can find, is there something I am missing? This may be an elementary question, but please humor me. Thanx

There are only a few things holding them in. there are only 6 bolts that hold the bellhousing to the engine, but there are 4 bolts on the front side of the bellhousing that connect it to the motor plate. Also if the starter is still connected you might not be able to take it off. Have you tried wacking it with a hammer yet, sometimes those parts get stuck onto eachother.

Yes, make sure the starter is off!
Otherwise, probably just stuck on the locating dowels. Give it some good whacks with a mallet and try to gently pry it away, straight back.
