you pulled the converter with the tranny, right? If not, then you need
to unbolt the 6 bolts from the flywheel. You are supposed to unbolt
them, then remove the converter with the tranny.

OK I pulled the tranny out today. How do I remove the torque converter?

Oh. OK. That would be the front pump drive. I didn't think they would break
that easy though I guess the pump ring itself can fracture. I haven't had
much experience in rebuilding the actual units or front pumps, just the
simpler IOs of units and seal replacements.

I think you are speaking of the splines on the shaft inside the torque
converters neck rather then the ears that hold the converter to the
flywheel.
Neither. I am very familiar with sheared stator splines, which is
what prompted the 450SL's tranny swap. The _drive_ ears on the TC
are concentric with the stator splines, it's like a big notched
screwdriver blade, or a two-toothed spline, surrounding the stator
shaft.
Sheared stator splines, btw, result in bad off-the-line torque,
and a whining sound when stopped. Dirt-simple test: lock the
brakes and stand on the gas, noting the RPM. If the stator isn't,
umm, static the RPM will be substantially lower than it ought.
