1973 f250 390 vacuum lines

I've been looking for a few days but every time i find something close to a vacuum diagram the image is all blurry.

I have a 1973 f250 with a 390, ford/holley 4 barrel, and a manual trans mission. i am assuming that all i need todo is connect the carb to the distributor. but it would be nice to know for sure.

Thats it, unless yours has a port for the air breather on the valve cover.

I do have that. And the tee that it goes to that is on the intake has a plug on one side then 3 in of line with a screw rtv'd in it. Also my donor truck had the vacuum switch on the water outlet elbow. Don't know if that's worth installing or not

I would just cap all that other stuff but it is up to you. You can play with it and see what is best but im sure someone will chime in here that has the same deal as you in a bit.
