As to drain it, I was figuring on an 1/8" hole to drain my converter then filling in the hole with 309 via tig. Any reasons i should not do this? Btw its a 97 with the AW.

not sure a rivet would throw it out of balance.How are you going to re-spin balance it afterwards?

I would assume he wants all of the original fluid out of the entire transmission. Shorts of disassembling the transmission, the above method is only way I know of flushing it. Expensive ...yes but that's the way it is.OP wants all existing fluid out of the TC.

I would be really worried about using a pop rivet as sometimes the piece that "pops" and stays in the rivet will come loose (I'm sheetmetal guy and use them on a daily basis).....wouldn't want that bouncing around inside my torque converter but, just my opinion.
I would be more inclined to drill and tap and use a pipe plug......like Fords use to have them
