Without a torque converter drain plug the simplest, least messy method is to geta hand pump and pull the fluid out of the pan from the dipstick. Drop the pan, change the filter, clean the pan out, reinstall the pan (don't overtighten pan bolts.) Refill the pan with RP or whatever fluid you want, about 4-5 quarts. Every so often, I do it at each oil change, pull fluid out of the pan and refill with RP or whatever. This will keep the fluid very fresh.
Otherwise you need to pull a cooler line and add new fluid while the old is being pumped out. You will get more new fluid in the unit but its messy and expensive to buy 12-14 quarts of synthetic fluid. Let us know what you decide to do.
