Question 1980 F350 with a rebuilt 400 from 1971

Hello to all you 335 series enthusiasts out there. I just finished my first V8 engine rebuild. The engine is a Ford 400 that came out of a 71 Mercury Monterey that only had 61.000 miles on it. I paid $150 for the engine it was already pulled from the car and disassemble and as a bonus it also came with a complete new Fel-Pro gasket set intake valley pan one extra carb new starter and water pump. I think that was the best dam $150 i ever spent. The engine will be replacing the dead 400 in a 1980 F350. I rebuilt the engine to std, new rings, bearings + cam & lifters. I also rebuilt the carb & swapped over the oil pan, flywheel & exhaust manifolds from the dead 400. I'm almost ready to instal the engine in the truck. I have one problem the emissions stuff in the truck is for the original 400 that had a egr system. The new engine does not have a egr system being that its from 1971. I need a vacuum diagram & any info on what I will need to have on this engine for emissions in Reno,NV Any help would be great Thank You

Thanks mustang81 for posting that link. I'm going to be installing the engine on Thursday. I'm going to take some pictures of the truck & engine but I'll make a new post for that
