Default TBSS Intake on '86 Monte

I was planning on swapping from my stock 6.0L truck intake to the TBSS intake, then I found that it hits the hood. The new angle to the throttle body points the intake up and makes my clearance turn into nothing.

Does anyone make an adapter plate of some sort to make the throttle body point level, or even a little downward?

If all else fails, what are my other options for using stock LSX intakes as an upgrade to my stock 6.0L?

It looks very similar to the stock 6.0L intake, but the throttle body is angled up which causes the only fitment issue..
