When removing ACV

Ok I've seen plenty of posts on this...but no one really answers it. When you remove the acv you lose the vaccum nipple for the pressure sensor. Can I just tee this into the line that runs to the bov? Lastly, are there any ports on the car that would supply just a positive pressure or just a vaccum signal? Just want to make sure that there aren't any check valves or anything when I start removing the emissions bs. Thanks guys.

86-88 I gather. The 89-91 has it on the Intake plenum.

Any vac source should be fine.

NA or TII? I remember it being on the intake manifold on my GXL. I haven't gotten around to ditching the smog on my TII yet...

Yeah it's an 88 TII. I would think the nipple off the pass side of the intake manifold will work for the pressure signal...right now that nipple just supplies the vaccum/boost level to the BOV. Also, I think there are 3 vaccum ports off the throttle body. What do all those lines run to. Eventually I'm going to remove the rats nest and I need to figure out where I can run what. Obviously I'll need some kind of vaccum boost signal for the fuel pressure reg, bov, pressure sensor and wastegate. Am I forgetting anything? What about the *PCV* type stuff. Later.
