Offhand I do not. I'm actually a sysadmin, not a cartographer, I focus 
more on the software and operating system than projections. :)

Would UTM zone 60 work? From there, the dateline would be at x=50000 and 
points east thereof would be, well, east as usual. Zone 60 should be 
EPSG codes 26760 (NAD27) and 26960 (NAD83/WGS94).
