pics of brake booster to aftermarket intake please!

Any pics of how you hooked your brake booster up to an aftermarket carb & intake?
The factory rochester has it threaded in to the carb, an aftermarket carb does not allow this so you have to do it into a port, what insert? what line? what did you use and how? pics please.

Re: pics of brake booster to aftermarket intake please!

carb should have a large vacum port just hook the hose to that or a fitting on the intake runner. I know hollys and edelbrocks have the large port for either brake booster or pcv valve.

Put a plate under the carb with a inverted flair fitting. Going to 1 port is not as good as going under the carb base.

Or, hook it up to a 90 degree fitting screwed into the manifold like the ones here.

BEn IV was right, There was a brass fitting plug on the back of the carb for it. Got it on and now ran in to another problem. LOL

Ill start a new thread about this one.
