Torque converter runout

Thanks for the post guys. I am not performing the runout check, someone else is. This is how he checks for runout. I have access to a lathe a will look at the mounting plate idea. Here are a couple of other photos. I do not know enough about this process and how critical it is or isn’t, hence the post. He squares off at the mounting tabs and goes from there.
