Crazy idea to help decrease 2.1 head lag?

Thinking about the lag issue when installing a 2.1 head with manifold on 2.0 block. I gaet the reason why - the increased air volume within the manifold runners/intake ports, and the lowered compression from the larger compression chamber. N/A intake cam will help increase compression. I was thinking about the design of the manifold itself. Just after the TB, there's a sizable amount of space within the manifold. What if that volume of space can be reduced so the intake air charge reaches it's final destination quicker, thus reducing one of the known reasons for lag? Has anyone tried filling at least the bottom of the manifold with something like fiberglass resin? A liquid which hardens would make for a level and even filler. What would be the harm? Is all that space necessary for functional air flow?
