Default friend installed flywheel backwards on his 93 vette, what can be done?

My buddy just called me and told me to post this up to see if anyone could help him. he has a 93 corvette lt1 auto. and he bolted the flywheel on backwards supposedly. He was wondering if the torque converter can be shimmed or something to that effect or if he has to take it all back out again? If you post help him out quick he/I would appreciate it b/c he is sitting in his driveway with that really crappy feeling that i'm sure a lot of you guys have felt before.
thanks

he is going to have to redo it, sorry to say but nothing will work right. The Starter won't engage properly, the the flexplate won't flex in the right direction. I am shocked that he could even do that. On the LS1s there is no way to screw it up.
