Get the car as HIGH as you can, level as well. May require 2 rounds of jacking up the car to get it level and then using a Block or 2 of wood to get her higher and then use Multipe jacks.
Remove the Drive Shaft and detatch the TQ arm off the mount. IF not completely remove to give room. Get buddy to help, and if you can a transmission tray that fits in the hydraulic jack, and a strap. It just helps it from sliding.
Also a GOOD impact gun and a decent compressor and LONG extentions (not multiple short ones and a swivle end to help with the angles.
Get the ones you can, as well as Converter bolts. I am not sure if starter removal is a requirement (it has been a while)
once the lower 4 bolts are out, then take down the trans cross member (also disconnect the shifter cable and any sensors, also dip stick and coolant lines)
Then get the top bolts and she should come out with out issue. Using the Hyd. Jack to steadily bring her down.
Lastly prefill your new converter as Much as you can and reverse the removal order.
Double check before hammering on it incase you need to add more via the dip stick.
ALSO see if you can get a plug for the tail shaft as it will help avoid fluid spilling out as it gets tilted.
