TQ install/6L80E or any other full bell housing trans

So how are you to bolt and tighten the TQ converter to the flywheel? Is there enough access room through the two inch diameter access panel/hole cover to bolt and tighten the converter to the flywheel?
Doing an LS3/6L80E into my '91 and not sure how this works. Any info is appreciated and TQ recommendations appreciated
Thanks
Roy

Loctite and torque to 45 ft. lbs.
And BTW, this is all done from using Google.

Drop the starter and there's plenty of access to the converter bolts
