Better replace Flex Plate too. The Euro is the Now Stock replacement. You may consider a stronger converter like SunCoast or Precision Industries with a front billet cover. And use Loctite!!!

These guys can probably supply you with a flex plate, they are 545RFE specialists.

They also have Hemi TCs that will fit. We have a KJ CRD running the Hemi TC here in Australia, he reports great improvement (cupped vanes brazed on TC).
