Default 78mm Fast intake problem

I have a 78mm Fast intake that I am experimenting with and now have a problem with the TB not opening all the way. The cam that holds the throttle cable now hits the pcv hose on the passenger side of the intake and only allows 80% opening of the throttle body. Has anyone had this problem? Or does anyone know if you can add some kind of spacer to put between the TB and the intake? I only need about 1/4" of space.

You have to grind A little off of the TB cam, or I have seen some bend the end A little.
