Default BBK TB

I know there are some serious TB haters out there but...
I just put in my 62mm BBK and the bolts on the bottom are not long enough. The kit included 2 top bolts, fit perfectly. I removed the TB spacer (about 1/4 in) and slapper the TB on. Has anyone else had this problem? Do I need the spacer that comes stock on the car?
Thanks

Spacer? I just used the 2 bottom nuts off the stock throttle body on the bbk and they fit fine.

Havoc,
Did you notice a HP increase afteryou installed the TB? I just put a set of Hooker LT's on and an OR X pipe. I am heading in for a tune real soon, so I am hoping for a real good response from the work I have done.
