there are 6 studs on the converter bolted to the driven plate, and accessed from the back of the oil pan area facing rearwards if the engine were installed in the car. Rotating the engine is absolutely required to remove the torque converter, as you rotate it around to access the 6 nuts on the studs.

Not sure what you can do if its seized, you might be out of luck on pulling that converter.
