Default TB adaptor

So I need to use the LS6 intake off my Z to put on my Camaro and am buying a fast 92 to replace it with. Now with my time and budget at the current time I am not able to put a ls2 TB on it right now, but I will in a couple weeks. I found the TB adaptor FAST sells to put a 3 bolt TB on to it. anyone use this plate and not have any figment issues? Again this is a short term fix for two weeks as I need to get my Camaro back on the road and keep my Z running.

I was in the same boat as you. I had a LS3 intake that I needed to use my stock LS1 TB with. I got a cheap $20 adapter off ebay. It wasn't a perfect fit, I had to clearance the bottom of the adapter so it would not touch the water pump. and I had issues with the gaskets on both sides, so I ended using RTV. it seems to work fine. The one I used was a generic one, is the one from fast specific for a Corvette?
Hopefully mine is a temporary solution as well, but I can never find a good deal on a LS2 TB when I have extra cash.
