    carb spacer might help build a tiny bit more low end torque.... might be noticeable... might not....

    could be..... the reason you go pcv to carb and brake booster and transmission to manifold is because the difference in vaccum......the vaccum reacts differently at the carb base then it does at the manifold.... the carb base is affected by all cylinders while the manifold is only affected by the cylinder it connects to.... which means you only get vaccum at certain times.... sometimes you'll run into problems when you hit your brakes it'll miss on that cylinder... i'm not the expert and vaccum sources though so i cant fully explain it
