You will run the vacuum line directly from the intake elbow to the carburetor vacuum slider with no tee fittings. If you eventually go to a slide carburetor, you will completely block the vacuum line at the elbow.

Just to clarify because I'm not very good with engines. I will eliminate the hose that comes out of the tank and just connect the other 2 with out the "T"?
Again I want to tell everyone that has helped me that this forum is awesome and I can't beieve how generous peoploe are with their time and knowledge. I've already ordered some performance parts from 1 dealer on this site and will always look to the sponsors of this site first.

when you go with a manual valve, the hose that comes off the intake will then go straight to the passenger side of the carb where the barb is
