and i am unsure if its what i think it is....by having this does it eliminate the need for completely boxing a carb for a turbo setup.

you dont have to completely box the carb, HKS had a kit which ised a hat on top of a 32/36 weber. As long as its sealed and has foamfilled floats it shouldnt leak boost

Jake I reckon if you are going to go for a carb setup ,I would go for a draw through SU setup it seems so much simpler.

In a draw through the carby is operating normally at atmospheric pressure, you dont have to worry about ,boxing, seals, air leaks, and pulling the box open everytime you want to make an adjustment.

Best to use the late model floats that are brass, as the plastic floats don't tolerate boost well.

Also with a draw thru, you can use a standard fuel pump. With a Blow through, you need to run a fuel pump set up similar to EFI with a rising rate fuel regulater. Ie:Malpassi.

Maybe the 32/36 webbers are different, but with the 350 Holley Blow through set-up you remove the brass float and fit the black plastic one. The brass one collapses under boost (squashes flat) where the plastic one does the trick.
There is some places that produce ready made webbers fitted with all the gaskets,floats etc so you can slap it on.

The bonus with suck through is you don't need a intercooler or a high pressure fuel pump. i preffer blow through but its a personal thing, go with what you know, some preffer coops or sedans others utes.
