2000 legacy Gearbox removal help

[evoeater99]

Gidday all club subbers!

have recently taken on the task of removing my BH5 twin turbo legacy engine out of my car.. everythings unplugged, unbolted etc etc that needs to be. only i can't seem to remove the engine away from the gearbox i have undone all bolts but not too sure whether i have released the clutch fork properly have tried prying the engine out but want to know if i have done everything properly before i get rough with the thing. so can someone please give me some steps to getting it out or even pictures would be great! ha

cheers

theres a clutch pin that needs to be removed . its behind a bung on the passengers side of the gearbox

just above where the starter motor mounts

nice its surprising how something so simple can get so many people stumped it got me .

even got a mechanic at the old mans work ...... he got hired because of the amount of knowledge he had yet he didn't know about the clutch pin.

doesn't surprise me really as to do an oil and filter change he feels he has to take the wheels off the car :

the PULL type clutch that Subaru runs in their turbo cars catch alot of mechanics out as it is not the NORM
