Default LT1 to 4l60e swap

Hello, I have searched far and long for the info I need so apologies if I missed it. I have a 4th gen LT1 camaro z28 that originally came with a t56. I purchased the car with no transmission and have a 4l60e to swap in.

My question is I picked up a 4l60e that apparently has a LS/Vortec torque converter installed and I would like to find a compatible flexplate for the lt1 that I can mount to the LS torque converter (whatever spacers I need/etc as I think from my research the LT1 has external balancers where the ls is internal). I would rather not go swapping the input shaft / replacing the torque converter if possible as this is just a cheap project.

If I need to drill mounting holes in the flexplate that is fine, but not sure on the rest.

Hopefully this is possible and thanks for your help in advance.

LS Convertor is longer than the LT stuff. Take a pic of the 4L60E you have.
