Hey tech gurus....

l recently acquired a powder coated manifold and it looks great.

I was in the process of swapping the bits over when i noticed that the " std " one has an extra vacuum line on it at the rear ,

but the coated one does not...

So,the obvious questions ,how do i put one in the coated manifold and where would i get the tube to fit in there from,or how do i remove it from the other manifold ?

Buy threaded hose barb from a hose shop.
Drill a hole in the intake.
Tap out a thread.
Screw in the barb.
Profit.

Is part of the tcl. Just get your old one out and drill correct hole size and press in

Are there any other vac lines you could also tee off of or is that a bad idea?

Thanks...

lol....is it screwed in ,or pressed in ?

Tentatively tried to pull the old one out ,but didn't want to put to much pressure on it for fear of crushing it.
