Stock vacuum guage hook up info
I'm about ready to install my guages and I've never seen much info on the way you hook up a line to the back of a stock vacuum guage. Any picks? where to get the hardware and do you take it off the manifold?

Re: Stock vacuum guage hook up info
I just did the Dash I got from a board member that has a Vacuum guage in it I got some 3/16" flexible copper line and fittings at Ace Hardware (3/16's fit the ferrule on the guage). I went right to the Manifold behind the carb. Went through the firewall where the oil line goes through.Worked pretty good. I did curl the end of the line up a bit for flex in the Motor Mounts.

Re: Stock vacuum guage hook up info
I wonder how they were routed on the original hevier trucks? Sounds like a plan though.
