T it off the FPR line. You got this far and don't know where that line goes?

Well yeah, that's what doc just said.
But on like a a b series block, the b18a1 manifold has lots of extra nipples on it for just that kinda ----.
Asides, you don't need all that bullshit that's plugged into all the nipples anyways, when you're done making your car "un-environmental friendly" you're going to need some nipple plugs anyways to fill the gaps.
You should see me disect a 1986 sbc carb/intake manifold (1986 was the last year of the v8 carburated vehicles for any chevy). I usually go thru at least 1 full bag of nipple ends, man I rip all those bullshit hoses and sensors off, when I'm done it's only left with one hose going into the carb, the one for the vacuum advance on the distributor. You don't need ---- like the MAP sensor on a v8 (or electric choke). Had to get rid of the stock cast iron intake manifold cause it had 1 seized bolt and my ------- moron ex-brother-in-law said "oh let me get my cutting torch and fix that up for you", fixed me with a coolant leaking hole alright. My old 4 barrel stock carb is also long gone, that same ******** knocked it off my workbench without telling me and bent the main flapper shaft up; $100 later I'm sportin a barely used Edelbrock performer
on my holley intake manifold. I know it's backwards, usually ya see a holly double-pumper on an edelbrock manifold but I did it my way cause A)I like the fine tuning possibilities of the edelbrock carb B)couldn't really find an edelbrock manifold that would give me the low end power/torque curve that I use this 4x4 for.

Well I'm not there to tell him "Yeah, hook it right up to that nipple coming off the intake manifold that you aren't using." :P Any VAC source will work. I was just mentioning the most common place to hook it to.
