Ram air induction

[72mustang]

I’m installing RAP on my 1973 Mach 1. If anyone has it installed on your mustang can you post pictures of the vacuum line routing?

Thanks

Jerry

Don't look at my configuration the picture FoMoCo posted right before my post is what they are supposed to look like. I had to change up my vacuum and pcv line routing according to my carb & manifold of choice. 4118 carb off Shelby had all ports on the pass side. The 3 pcs off the hood 1 T to back of intake, mine carb port.

Thanks PoFoMoCo and Paul M. This diagram points me in the right direction.

I recognize that diagram Chris (PoFoMoCo) posted. I think I still have that blue highlighter ...Glad to see it getting circulated. Here are a few more diagrams that might help...

I had to use a 69 vacuum diagram to assemble my heater box. Still no blower motor, new switch is on the way. As far as my ram air set up, I've never seen one of those bi-metalic valves, that would explain why my snorkel never closed, while the NACA actuators were functioning normal. I removed the snorkel and left the ram air open, since the snorkel didn't function correctly with the system. I'll eventually revise it.

This car has been one big jig saw puzzle to begin with. Hell, I didn't even know that bi-metalic switch even existed. I had made a note on my agenda to look up ported vacuum vs unported for the snorkel actuator, since it didn't make sense to me, the bimetalic switch answers that question.
