Default 2 questions about engine swap

Finally getting around to my 305 to 350 swap. I'm using the factory T350 tranny and noticed it has a vacuum line up to the intake, but my new edelbrock int doesn't have that vac. port, so what do I do?


next the 2bbl carb on the 305 is vac controlled choke and the edlelbrock 4bbl is electric, so what do I do there?

heres a couple of pics so far

The carb should have a large vacuum port in the base plate front and/or back. That's a full manifold vacuum source same as on the intake manifold.
For the choke, hook it up to a 12 volt switched (key on) power source.
