No, the spacer has a chamfer on one end of it, if you install it with the chamfer pointing to the front of the engine, the spacer doesn't seat flat on the face of the cam journal because of the radius on the cam snout and it will cause the spacer to stick out farther away from the face of the cam. This is a common mistake for those that don't realize it has to go on with the radius cut in the spacer positioned inward against the cam snout. This is not specific to just the Chevy engines, but all engines that have a thrust plate and spacer design.
