I've never messed with an ls1 auto, but I'm pretty sure you'll need to unbolt the flexplate to torque converter bolts.

Pull the trans out first. Remove the drive shaft. Or you can just slide the trans back enough to clear the engine. You don't need to take off the flywheel. Just take the converter bolts out and let it stay with the trans. Then let it drop!

What they said. It would be a lot easier to take the trany and engine out at the same time, trust me! I have taken out my trany by its self on my 98, not worth the extra work. If u decide to leave the trany in anyway, just unbolt the 3 bolts from the converter and the 6 bell blots as said above. The bell bolt at the very top will make you
