TPS connector problems

Okay, here's the deal. I have a 90 RS 305 TBI. I bought a throttle body from a 92 camaro that has had all the ultimate mods done to it. Unfortunately, the tps on the 92 is different from my 90 tps. SO, I was wondering if anyone knows the proper wiring for this newer setup. The 92 sensor is a 3 prong kinda circular shape with the prongs set up almost like a power outlet in your home. The old one is 3 prong with the prongs in a line. I'm trying to figure out how to re-prong the wires to fit the new sensor. I've looked around at the tech articles, but they don't seem to cover this particular problem. I'm gonna go junkyard hunting this weekend to try to find an entire harness setup from the TPS back, but in case I can't, I wanted to see if I can figure out how to attach the wires directly.

Either junkyard hunt like you said and cut a connector off then splice the wires together. Or, Turbocity sells an adapter for just that conversion for like 12 bucks, your call.

Man, you rock. I've looked everywhere for something like this. Advance (yay), Autozone (boo), even Fbodymotorsports didn't have anything that could help. I'm ordering one of those things right now.
