thanks clinebarger!!
i was researching on my own and found this, it will help those who may need both spacer and fly wheel.
it comes with flywheel, spacer and bolts at $50 all new from GM.

With this GM part number 12621399 you get everything.
Thats a really good deal, That is what GM uses to mate a 4L80E to a 6.0 in 2500HD & up trucks. I have priced out that kit in the past....It cost alot more than that at the time. Are you sure its not just the flexplate at that price?

Considering I had bought a spacer and later realized I would still have to get a new flex plate...so I just bought this Pace kit. When it fit nicely but the holes were a bit off.....I drilled it. This made the mounting holes elongated but due to the pilot fit I felt since it was centered so well, that even though I wasn't using a drill press...the end result with a small equal amount of metal removed would be a good working/centered/balanced fit.

In this circumstance.........is my flexplate now junk? I bolted it to the converter using ARP bolts. No nuts were required for my flexplate as it had like captured nuts welded to the tabs. I was considerate to balance in my mod....but couldn't gaurantee its as good as a "proper" flexplate would be.
I think it will be fine. Thats what Advanced Adapters does, Crank spacer and a redrilled stock flexplate.
