How to re-install a 4l60e to a 5.3l on a 2005 tahoe

[ginesis12]

I need help as to how to reinstall my tranny back into my tahoe. I have rebuilt 4l60e trannies on earlier models (96 and 97) but the bell housing and fly wheel are different and I am trying to figure out how to even get to the torque converter bolts (seems impossible to remove them with engine clearance) to get the old torque converter out (tranny came out with torque converter still bolted to the flywheel. After getting the converter off, how do I manage to bolt up my tranny with my new converter already installed with no access to the flywheel it seems because of the bellhousing design?

You remove plastic side covering I believe? Turning flywheel to get one bolt at a time?
