 The issue would be the spline pattern on the sun gear shaft.  Is it the same diameter, does it have the same number of spines, and is there enough spline available in front of the flex plate to fit the rotor on?  I know the hole in the rotor is a 1" diameter, 10-spline hole.

        What would prevent you from just sliding the rotor (with just a round hole) over the splined shaft, and attaching it to the flexplate with a few screws? Splines are expensive to machine.
