I want to change out the K-line small size couplers to whatever it's called couplers which will work using Lion Chief remote. Advise what I should buy to perform this conversion & any suggestions

It would help if you told us what K-Line products we're speaking of. Are you talking about the scale Kadee couplers that some K-Line stuff offered? Many of those products also had an option to simply bolt on the 3-rail full sized couplers as well.
The coupler is not the issue. The circuit board in the LC+ engine receives the command signal from the remote and sends the signal to the coupler. The remote DOES NOT talk to the coupler.
Same principle with TMCC engines. The boards do the talking and send voltages to the components to operate.
So, if I read you post correctly, just adding a LC+ coupler to the K-line engine won't make the coupler work with the remote.
There are no conversion kits for non LC+ engines to make them LC+. G
