It's usually a better idea to leave the torque converter in the bellhousing. flywheel/flex plate can be removed with the engine.

It's possible to pull the torque converter with the engine. However it's easy to damage it in the process.

Remove the flexplate to torque converter bolts and leave the converter with the trans. 15mm headed bolts. 4 of them.
