You will get really good at pulling the transmissions in your ride. 
There are two types of spacer. In your application you can choose to use either. I have used both, but prefer the bolt on type because I have access to a GMPP dealer where I can get them cheaper than most websites, same day and no shipping. You could use the type that slides on after the flexplate and doesn't require bolts if you can wait for (and pay for) it to be shipped.
The GM part is more expensive but more flexible, while the slip on will suit your needs perfectly.
The GM part (requires longer bolts): GM Spacer
Longer Bolt (requires six)
One of the slip on versions: Aftermarket spacer

Don't you have to use both pieces? Spacer flexplate and slip on? I'm running a 700R4 to 4.8 and a flat TCI flexplate since I didn't want to long gate the holes on the stock flexplate
