Capping off most of the vacuum fittings
Capping off most of the vacuum fittings
Hey guys,
I have a '93 LT1/T56 in a '72 Vega. The car doesn't have power brakes or anything fancy. I basically just need PCV hooked up to the front of the intake manifold and a vacuum hose hooked up to the fuel pressure regulator, correct?
Can I just cap everything else off? What's the easiest way to plug the hole for the brake booster on the driver side? Anything else?
Thanks for the help,
Colin

Any of those fittings you don't need, you can just take them out and put pipe plugs in there - I think they're all 1/8th or 1/4" NPT. You could even get some nice aluminum ones if aesthetics is important to your project.

Kevin,
Thanks for the tips. I bought some vacuum caps but will be getting some aluminum plugs or something pretty for when I get the intake powdercoated. Aesthetics isn't 'really' a focus right now but it will be when I take the motor out (an hour job) later this fall to paint the engine compartment and start the body work.
I used some schematics from other threads and got the PCV system routed and the vacuum line to the FPR run.
