Taking an auto out is not like a manual.....

You are supposed to unbolt the converter from drive plate and push it free from the drive plate first, before undoing bellhousing bolts.

What has most likely happened is that the converter has moved out from the gearbox, and if it has been bolted back up to the enine and "locked" it it will have ruined the pump and converter and will now require a transmission and converter replacement.

It is imperative never to use brute force to mate an auto box with an engine, i.e. pull it in with the bolts :'(
