I would loosen up the tranny mount and stab it, bolt the converter to the flex plate once it is stabbed and then bolt everything back up. I've never done the "I want to either attach the torque converter back to the flexplate"
I don't know if that would be any easier or not. If you pull the TC and bolt to the flex plate and go to stab it you are gonna dump tranny fluid out all over the place.
