In a worst case scenario, it's not a match and you need a new bottom bracket, so you pick up a new Shimano UN-55 in the appropriate length for $15-20. Plus a bottom bracket tool like a Park Tool BBT-22 or BBT-32 if you don't have one for another $10-15.
Got a reply from FSA, I need to have a 110.5 spindle for the tempo crankset to work. I'll have to pull off the cranks someday and measure before buying.
