Default Bolt up problems in tbi to carb swap

Hey everyone I have a 91 Chevy suburban with a 5.7 that I'm doing the tbi to carb swap on. I'm ready to begin reassembling and during a dry fit with my edelbrock performer I found that I would have to bore out center bolt holes to make it work. Well this leaves my bolts seated at a funny angle...will this allow for proper torque values? Any advice?

There should be an adapter plate available, it's a common swap. I'ld start with looking up what Edelbrock has.
