Brake Booster Question

Hey All,

I've been working on a stutter issue with my engine and the process has brought up another question. I have the PCV hose hooked up to the back of the carb and the front valve plugged. The brake booster is hooked up to the back of the intake manifold. Should I be routing the BB to the carb or is it fine to leave as is? It has driven fine as is (have not changed this since I bought it). Any input?

It's fine. The intake is the factory location for the brake booster, the carb is the tap for the PCV system.

You should have plenty of vacuum where your at. That's where my Ka'Bluey is hooked up too.
