Separating flywheel from crank

[fng]

Well I have the crank/flywheel all marked, labeled (for reassembly) and ready to pull apart.
I took all the nuts and locking washers off and pushed the studs back about an inch apiece. Now the two won't separate. I tried gently urging it with a rubber dead-blow hammer, tried rotating it just to break the tension...no-go.

Any ideas?

This must be a herculean (ooooo-good word) task with it still in the truck.

You've got the bellhousing off before the flywheel? Maybe a photo would help.

Apply heat.
