Amen.

Does the vacuum generated in the intake manifold and port contribute to the vaporization of the fuel?

Yes, but you can’t choke flow just for vaporization. If you use a Holley you have more choices to affect atomization and vaporization than any other carb.

You may have to do things with other carbs you wouldn’t do with a Holley.
