Brake line

There should be a plug for that hose on the manifold.

there should be a large vacuum nipple on the base of the holley carb (may have a plug on it) that you can use if there is no fitting on the manifold.

i bought a rb holley carb and intake and it had a large nipple on the side of the manifold, if not just drill and tap a npt thread for a nipple , you can get a nipple from lowes

Could someone post a pic of how the mitering oil pump rod connects to the carb? or email: kyrleNelson@yahoo.com?
On my RB setup i had a 3/8 npt hole. I just bought a $.39 nipple and hooked it to the brake vac hose and intake (just under the carb about 1.5"-2"). The other fuel line(return?) should simply be pluged, thats what the instructions say. Also make sure your fuel system will deliver at least 5psi. Hollys dont like much less (i dont think stock pump can do this, Holly blue fuel pump seems to be choice)

I took the throttle linkage and arm from my old carb (stock), drilled through the rivit at the piviot and connected the cable link part to the holly throttle arm. How is your mitering oil pump rod connected? can you show a pic?
