finishing someone else's project, have questions
Hi everyone, I'm new here. Anyway, long story short, I'm trying to get my old truck running that was left only half-finished by someone else. He had put on aftermarket intake and exhaust manifolds and bought an HEI distributor. I got the distributor installed and wired in so now I'm putting the carb back on. When I was trying to figure out whether or not I could get away without using the spacer temporarily (I can't find long enough bolts), I noticed a threaded hole at the back of the intake just under the opening that the carb spacer sits on. Except for the fuel line (which obviously goes to the carb) I can't see anything in the engine compartment that would go into this hole. What's it for? Can I just put in a threaded plug? If it's for a vacuum line, where do I put the other end?
Truck is a 1971 with a 350.Last edited by Dirty Girl; 11-10-2015 at 10:22 AM.

Or you can use it for a vacuum supply for power brakes.
If you don't need it, plug it.
It's good to see you here, perhaps when you've a chance, put up a picture of the project.

Borrowed from a FB post... Bubba loved to hunt, and every Friday after work he would fire up his grill and stoke up his smoker for the weekend and cook venison steaks, roasts and an occasional...
