[QUOTE="kingb1973, post: 356069, member: 5649"] Not saying for sure....but it might be just that simple, but a lot of what I think I know can quickly turn into what I thought I knew. Never can tell what a previous owner may have done. Carb changes, distributor changes, Etc. can easily change things. Lots of folks took the evil emission stuff off and threw it away. It is also a California car (KK on the tag?) but I think the 16A config/calibration still stands. You said you had all the wires accounted for so I assume there is no wire ([COLOR=#333333][FONT=Tahoma]Brown/Orange)[/FONT][/COLOR][FONT=Tahoma][/FONT] up front for the infamous valve #5 from 3-14A.....did you ever have that solenoid valve? Not sure which vacuum port on the manifold you are mentioning. Is it the one in front of the carb, or the "tree" in the rear? Lots of other hoses on the tree, Brake Booster, Air Cleaner Flapper, Etc. What isn't used on the tree gets a rubber cap. You may or may not have the one in the front. Gotta ask. Are you running a single or dual vac distributor? Do you still have the dual vacuum modulator on the transmission? Is this the original engine/trans to the car? And trust me, lots of pictures before taking something apart....ask me how I know.
