are you trying to get it to pass emissions? if so then you will probably need a diagram. if not there is very little of that crap you actually need. all that is needed is a vacuum line from the distributor to a vacuum outlet on the carb that only has vacuum when the motor is reved. you will also need to run a vacuum line from the vacuum tree on your intake to the vacuum canister "under" the drivers side front fender ( not the canister in the engine compartment thats for fuel tank vapor ) then one from the canister to the vacuum line that goes through the firewall. that makes your vents and a/c work properly. the large vacuum line that goes to the break booster needs to be hooked to the intake vacuum tree. the vacuum line that goes to the tranny modulator needs constant vacuum. the rest of that crap is junk and can be plugged. sick
