Default Z06 diff pump removal, how???

I need to separate a trans and diff to ship the trans asap and cannot figure out how to get the cooling pump off. I had RPM build this some time ago but never saw it opened up until just now and not your average parts layout(I can normally do just about anything without a manual) I only have C5 manuals, this is a C6 pump, RPM closed before I realized it was just going to just slide off as most diffs in Vettes. I need to ship this asap as he needs it for his race car, asap, of course

Anybody know how to do this?

Thanks
Rick

OK, I was able to call Randy at DRM, as always great help there, it was just being stubborn, a better pry bar is all I needed to pop the trans and diff apart, sure felt like it was more serious than that!

Separated and shipped the trans today

Thanks buddy!

No worries and thanks again

It was one of those things, no manual, did not feel like it was going to come apart due to something you are not supposed to pry on, etc...!

It shipped out on time, going into a race car right away so to a good home!
