Where would be a good place to find a flexplate for an International DT466 with an Allison AT545 transmission?

Look for a med duty bone yard that has buses. There should be a few in Ohio. Am I detecting an engine swap in the LoPro?

Looking at a transmission swap. Have access to a truck with a DT466 and Eaton/Fuller 6 speed which I want to put in my truck and put the AT545 behind the DT466. To much converter slippage with the AT545.

Swapping the engines appears to be much more involved. The DT466 is a lot longer than the T444E. Requiring that the firewall be cut out and a doghouse into the cab. Plus the T444E only has 102K miles VS 303K on the DT466. Truck only sees about 4K a year so I don't think that the engine swap would be worth it. I am looking at the mileage benifit with the manual transmission.

Is there anything else needed in addition to the flexplate to bolt the AT545 behind the DT466? Will the converter spacer from the T444E work?
