Twincam pedal box stuck

Hi,
i am just trying to remove my mk1 twincam pedal box and it wont come out. I have undone the two two inlet lines (from reservoir) and the outlet too the clutch and brakes. Then the 4 nuts on the bulk head, then the accelerator cable. i can wiggle the pedal box around but the bloody thing wont come out, im scared im putting too much pressure on it and about too resort too the "gentle persuader" soon.
Can anyone tell me if there is a trick? Or have i missed something silly? cheers
Tim

    Not sure if this applies but the mk1's have another bolt up the top, ie above the pedals inside the car, cant say for sure about the twink but worth a look.

    The top bolts had a black tar or body deadener on them, took a while finding them, thanks for your help!!
