Question - how is the best way to loosen the 6mm SHCS bolts that hold the torque to the flex plate?

I don’t see a question I thought I had asked.  What’s the best way to remove the 6 mm SCHSs holding the torque converter to the flex plate?

OK - this is the third time I (think) I have posted this question, but I don't see it?  If it is showing up multiple times, I apologize.

My question is how do you remove the socket head cap screws that attach the torque converter?  I have the engine out, the tranny removed and I need to remove the torque converter and the flex plate so I can mount the engine on the engine stand.

What has been the experience?

Thanks,
Harry

Thanks Pawel66.  The issue is my failing to see that there are multiple pages.  I see this morning this is a 2 page string.  Geez!
