Default C5 Converter Installation

Anyone have a good writeup on it? I will be putting one in for my neighbor, and I can't find a writeup for the life of me. Transmission removal? I can't find **** for a 'vette.

I looked all over here, but can't find anything besides f-bodies (which I could do anyway). I searched corvette forum and couldn't find anything either. Their "DIY" thread was a little less help than I hoped for. I searched "stall" and got "heated seat install" hahaha.

Also, I'm thinking he would like somewhere around a 3200. Anything special I need to consider for him? His car has a few boltons and a 125 shot (might go a bit bigger in the future).

Every vehicle I own is a manual, and I've just tuned autos, so no idea what I need to do or look for lol.

Anyone have any insight on this?

Even something like "Drop the differential, unbolt torque tube from motor, unbolt from trans, etc" would help.
