That can be a rather long and headache-filled learning curve. It's hard to get that seal on the carb bonnet just right. That Stealth manifold would work great in an N/A application, but a blower will definitely want to push more air than it can handle. Some companies make blow through carburators also. Carbs specifically designed for forced induction applications. There was a guy I remember seeing in 5.0 magazine that had his carb mounted on the blower inlet pipe. It was definitely odd. Your idea of putting a huge spacer under the carb for the inlet pipe would probably also colapse the floats due to the negative pressure under the car sucking air HARD through the actual carb. Just my $.02

So I pushed it up to 110,
That flathead motor was about to give in,
I crossed my fingers and prayed to the lord,
