need cali emmisions help

i know theres many threads on this but non that seem to pertain to my truck. ive looked all through here and have bought both the haynes and chilton books to no avail. my truck is a california emisions 460 f250. i need a picture of an engine in detail so i can reroute everything. the previous owner messed it all up and i cannot get this thing straight. hopefully someone can help. im only getting 100 miles per tank right now and its killing me. thank you!

Wow. That's a little worse than my truck.
Someone has a factory service manual I'm sure. Look on eBay for one if no one here can find a vacuum diagram for you.

460 emmision

I've got some emmisions diagrams in my old manuals .I've also got a printout from the Calif smog ref for the calibration(smog system) they want on my 79 F250 I swapped a 460 into.Email me at wrd.davenport@gmail.com if anyone needs copies I'll send them.I have all the parts finally but no shop will touch it because they are apparently scared of the ref.So I have to go back to the ref myself.....D0ES ANYONE KNOW where the SV-CBV(soleniod valve-carb vent bowl gets its power from?I've got it tied into what use to be the electric choke lead from the 351M that was in it but not sure the ref will go for that.Also I have ALOT of extra Vacuum/emmisions valves.I'm in Sacramento if anyone in the area needs anything and I have it it's yours.Use the email if I don't respond on here I'm still learning how to use this site

Found it on a wiring diagram in an old manual.Checked my wiring harness and sure enough there it was unused.Then I found a shop that wasn't scared to test a truck that's been to the referee before and it passed smog..Awsome
