Yes, it will come off fine.

But NEVER fit the torque convertor to the flex plate before fitting the box, it must always be fitted to the box first and ensure its fully home.

You may get covered in ATF though when you pull the box without the tc

i have read older posts on replacing the box and got the message about the converter going on with the box and not remaining on the engine, and if the sore back is anything to do with removing the autobox Albs i appologise for making you work so hard ;)

Well, the box came out nicely ( or as nicely as you would expect doing the job single handed ) so thanks for the advice everyone. :y
