Usually one has to remove the transmission from the engine first, to make it easier. The crank is bolted to the flexplate, which in turn is bolted to the torque converter.
In this case, you may be able to sneak the crankshaft out, without removing the trans.
Remove the 4 bolts that hold the flexplate to the torque converter.
Loosen the 6 transmission bellhousing bolts (do not remove). Push the transmission back about 1/4 inch or so.(if the trans is still in the vehicle, you will have to loosen the rear transmission mount.) Make sure the converter is pushed back as well.
You should see a slight gap between the flexplate and the converter. Then you should be able to drop the flexplate and crankshaft together.
