On my edelbrock, the vacuum booster went to a vacuum port on the intake. It should have ports on it, or at lease holes for the ports, so you can put a plug in with a port for a vacuum line.

The spacer would work. Most manifolds have a provision for a fitting. If you go the spacer route make sure of your hood clearance and check out some of the differences. Some spacers can also help with performance gains. Stay away from the open type, you should look for one with the 4 separate holes.
