3 prong intake fitting

Can someone tell me what the 3rd prong is for on this fitting?
I know the bigger threaded one is for power brakes and I have the threaded steel line piece to go with it. One of the 2 smaller are for the turbo 400 but what is the third for?
Could I run my vacuum guage off of it?

Re: 3 prong intake fitting

Could be for anything really. Some had a cap on the extra. It may not have even been used on your truck. I think you could hook your vac gauge to it.

sdkid is correct. Hook up your vac guage there. I have even seen 4 prong fittings.

Threaded one for the brake booster, the one with the ridge for the trans and the other for the AC vac cannister
