Default Need DBW help!!!!

So I am rounding third base on my RX8 swap. Here is the run down on my setup. 0411 pcm, 2002 corvette TAC and pedal, 2005 GTO TB (6 pin), and a 2002 Corvette OS. I curious how to wire the TB to the TAC. My TB only has one 5V and low red wire. The TAC uses two. I have heard to tie both 5V ref wires from the TAC to the TB and same with the Low ref. when I power the TAC and move the pedal the TB doesn't move. When I power the TAC up the TB blade snaps closed and relaxes. Any input guy or do I have to use the 8 pin ls2 TB?

Why are you trying to use an 05 GTO TB rather than an 02 vette TB?

Bc im using a FAST 90 intake and LS2 TB is 90mm vs the 02 Vettes 75mm. Its a common swap for guys to use the LS2 TB on C5s.

Thanks.

its tricky.i bought the adapter but had to repin it. my issue is that it functioned in reverse. if it snaps closed it is in safe mode from not seeing the correct signal.
