I need manifold vaccuum ports, and I lack them.
I want to drill and tap for a fitting for vac hoses to attach to (IE head breather, etc.) only issue is that I don't know what the carb base looks like inside.... does it have four barrels or is it open inside?? you all know what I have, the single progressive weber..... |

There should be some vacuum-side nipples (at least one) on the Weber itself. It may be plugged now. You can tee off of these if you really need vacuum signals. As The Cap'n says, the head breathers don't go there, they go in the air cleaner. If you need air cleaner ports, and you have a K&N doodad on top, then use 90d angle'd fittings that you can epoxy into place on the top lid of the filter, and push hoses onto.
Other than the distributor (if you have a vacuum distributor), nothing else on the engine should require manifold vacuum. Everything else should go into the air cleaner. |
