you can get end caps for the old school vacume lines but you dont need to, its just a feed through on the t/b, it wont affect the t/b at all with it open later,kevin

I did this mod and didn't use any connectors I just re routed it from the radiator to the top of the engine. The hose that goes into the left of the TB can run all the way to where the hose from the right of the TB goes into the top of the engine. It took me over an hour to do but I'm sure I could do it a lot faster now. You need midget hands to get the connectors on. I don't have any pics and the directions may seem vague but PM if you have any questions. Good Luck.

Thanks for the help and you are right, if i had hands the size of 2 yr olds i could probably get the job done a lot easier. Hey, V8 are you going to the gtg at hallsvile?

Not really sure, Bullet. I have it done, but I don't like the "unfinished" look it leaves. (I'm real picky like that.) I may move it back to stock.
If anyone needs pictures, I can get one tonight.
I used a 1/4" barbed splice from Home Depot.
