In the process of wrapping up replacing all the vacuum lines on my 73 2.0. I went by a combination of the 73 and 74 diagrams on Bowlsby’s site. But looking at this one some of the lengths seem long compared to what was in the car and fit without having a bunch left over. The three 36” lengths make no sense to me.
