Converter bolts reverse thread?

I have a 2002 WS6 and was wondering the bolts that hold the converter onto to flexplate are they reverse thread or standard thread? And any tricks to hold the converter while loosening the bolts? Thanks.

dont need a swivel socket. lock the flexplate with a BIG screwdriver. they will be a bitch to get off. use a 6-point socket and not a 12 point. dont wanna round it off.
