You should be able to use that fitting.
Anti-seize is your friend I use it on almost every bolt I touch on a classic truck. It's not ideal for sealing NPT, but it would probably work fine on a carburetor vacuum port since NPT threads are pretty much self sealing anyway. Teflon paste would also probably work.
