First, are you sure you want to do this? If so the best way is to make sure you have the right equipment to get the vehicle low and high enough to put the engine’s cradle into the stand that was made for it, then after you get all the wiring, cables, hoses and anything else that makes connections from powertrain to the body disconnected, then you can setup the support, positioning everything just right and start removing mounting bolts to the engine cradle, then carefully raise the body up until you can roll the entire cradle with engine all together, then you can start disassembling and separating the engine from transmission. Then do what you need to do and reassemble. This is a labor intensive job and is not something a novice should even attempt as you could severely injure yourself. Personally I’d just sell it off for parts or scrap, as it is a defunct car line.

I wouldn't bother , what makes you think the torque converter failed ?
A common GM failure is the TCC (Torque Converter Clutch) solenoid in the transmission. Not the torque converter itself. The TCC stays locked in and causes stalling when you're coming to a stop and will sometimes cause the engine to stall immediately when you shift out of Park. Saturn was a GM product, by the way. Jim
