8BA Question

Since I currently have no other projects, I've decided to see if I can get the "ran when parked" 8ba motor I've got sitting in the corner to run. One thing I am missing is the vacuum line that runs from the distributor to the carburetor. Is that item reproduced? My searches haven't turned up anything for it.

Yes, Roy Nacewicz makes a really nice vacuum advance line. You can make your own but his is near perfect.

I used copper brake line from Napa to make a replacement for mine.
