Threw a rod in my truck

I am trying to replace an engine that threw a rod, I was trying to leave the tranny in the truck so it would be less work, but since it broke the rod, the rod is kinda jammed between the crank shaft and the piston cylinder so the fly wheel won't turn which means I can't get the bolts connecting to the torque converter off. Is there another way to get the engine out without having to take it out as a unit engine+tranny, or am I going to have to bite the bullet and do it that way?
