now what??
So I just got an 8" power brake booster/dual master cyl to add to my 61 f100 with a 4 wheel drums. I have no idea where to connect the other end of the vacuum hose. I have the inline 6 223 engine. Sorry if this is a stupid *** question but I'm getting very annoyed right now so please help!! Thanks

I should add that I was just going to split my existing brake lines at the union on the frame, but nothing will unscrew from the block so now I am replacing all the lines as well. Lucky for me the PO replaced the wheel cylinders and flex lines.

thanks I I'll look below the carb later. I'll wait till I get some new lines before I go taking **** off. Might just take it to a pro and have it done. Brakes are the one thing I want done right ya know?

If there is only one port and it is being used, say for an auto trans or vacuum wipers, you will need to install a "T" and create a port for the booster.
if you are still having difficulty, post a picture of the intake and carb on your truck. Someone here will be able to point out where to hook the vacuum line for the booster.
