Default LS1/th350, best to space or correct converter?

When doing a th350 swap is it better to space out the flexplate, or get the correct converter that has the longer snout?

Price wise its less to space it out, but do you have to worry about anything other than just making sure you have bolts long enough?

Not really anything to worry about with the spacer. However, the relationship of the snout and the flexplate/crank pilot will not be the same as with a run of the mill TC compared to the correct TC, which has a slightly longer snout. FWIW, Fuddle can hook you up with the correct TC with an excellent warranty, service, quality and all that jazz. GL.
