Default any ideas? my converter is stuck in my trans

i didnt seat my converter correctly onto the pump, and now its jammed. i bought a new trans and converter, because i couldnt get the converter out. but i was shipped the incorrect transmission, so i have to get my converter out and reuse my old trans somehow. i already have a new converter and pump. when i say jammed, i mean its IN THERE. i tried prying with 3 pry bars and thought i was going to break my bellhousing. i tried prying from the bottom peep hole and cracked the bellhousing there. then i chained a huge slide hammer evenly onto the bolt holes, and it still didnt budge. if anyone has any other tricks they want to share with me i would greatly appreciate it. i have to get my car running soon or im fucked.

I had a 4l80 the other day that I never could get out. It would slide out enough for me to get my hand in a wrench the pump bolts out. The stator tube in the pump was stuck inside the converter.
