IS THIS WRONG?

AFTER LOOKING AT AS MANY PICTURES AS I CAN FIND ON THIS WEB SITE I'M STILL NOT SURE IF I HAVE THE LINES HOOKED UP CORRECTLY. PLEASE TAKE A LOOK FOR ME AND SEE IF YOU CAN HELP.

IN THE FIRST PICTURE DO I HAVE THE SMALL ALUMINUM TUBE (HAD A BRAIDED CLOTHE) FROM THE CARB GOING INTO THE WRONG POINT?

COULD IT BE THAT IT NEEDS TO GO INTO THE EXHAUST MANIFOLD HOLE YOU CAN SEE IN THE PICTURE?

IF SO, WHAT HOOKS INTO THE TUBE INLET ON THE SMALL COVER ATTATCHED TO THE EXHAUST MANIFOLD NOW?

TRANSMISSION VACUUM MODULATOR IS PULLED FROM INTAKE VACUUM? CORRECT?

THESE PICTURES ARE OF THE LINES THAT I HAVE, THE FITTING ON THE LARGER ONE DOES FIT THE HOLE IN THE INTAKE MANIFOLD AND I WILL NEED TO FAB THE REST IF THIS SEEMS CORRECT.

THE SMALL LINE IN THE SECOND PICTURE, I'M NOT REALLY SURE.

AGAIN I HAVE THE VACUUM TO THE DIST. AS YOU CAN SEE IN THE FIRST PICTURE. ANYTHING OUT OF PLACE?

THE SMALL FITTING ON THE TOP OF THE CARB IN PICTURE #1 SEEMS TO BE THE SIZE FOR THE HOSE ON THE SMALL TUBE IN QUESTION BUT I'M NOT SURE WHERE IT SHOULD LEAD. IF I LAY IT AROUND THE VALVE COVER IT COMES TO THE OTHER SIDE OF THE ENGINE ABOUT CENTER OF THE VALVE COVER.

Looks good to me.. Except ur missing a line that goes to the transmission shift modulator.

HI
What I see is a hole in the intake (blue) right below the hose clamp and a small hole in the exhaust manifold (black) right below the carb..
The hole in the intake (blue) is where the PCV used to hook up on that head orginaly.. you can or need to just plug it off if your not going to use it... Just use one of those pipe plugs you can get at any store.
The hole in the exhaust (black) used to hook up to the choke on the orginal applacation.. no need to plug it isn't open to the inside..

Hi, the hole in the log can be used for your vacuum for the tranny modulator. It needs manifold vacuum to work properly. Remember try to run a steel line as much of the way as you can with only about 3"s of hose on either side of the steel. You can purchase a elbow of hose for your modulator.

The hole in ghe exhaust manifold was the orginal place for this. Where you have it is ok its and aftermarked set up.

I beleve this is the modulator line to the tranny.

I beleve this looks like the orginal vacuum line to the dizzy.

Some of the dizzys have a weird vacuum set up I forget what its called ( I rember now its was called a load-o-matic} and they use two vacuun lines if yours only had one attachment point then just plug this one off..
