If it is the stock TB from 1987 then the gasket is probably stuck. Keep trying to get it off and eventually it will come loose.

try taking off the tb and EGR spacer as one unit... ie try removing the whole setup from your intake. Then you can worry about separating the EGR spacer and TB without damaging either on the studs and you'll be able to handle them easier as well.

it took me about a half hour to get mine off.
Take a long strong screwdriver and hammer it between the EGR spacer and T/B and keep at it, it will eventually start to come off and slowly come out.
