Gas Tank Removal

The original fiberglass tank does not want to come out. The small crane that removed the engines would not break it loose (had to use only the boom to lift because of low overhead clearance). Since then I have cut away all of the foam on the sides, front and back that I can reach. I have tried to pop it loose with a hand winch but it doesn't want to budge.

Please tell me there is some magic tip to getting the thing out.

Thanks
Happy Thankgiving
