Maybe someone else can comment, but I don't know of many full arrangements. Just about the only things available are lead sheets (melody and chords only).
The best book to start with is Henry Sapoznik's "The Complete Klezmer", Tara Publications, look it up on their website. The accompanying CD is very useful.
I have generated lots of lead sheets, but they are in MusicProse, the long discontinued little sibling of Finale. Don't know if Finale still reads them.
If you are still interested, please respond.

I haven't seen "The Compleat Klezmer", but another one of his books, "The Klwezmer Plus Folio", also has a few full arrangements.
