on a holley 4160 600cfm carb. witch of the little hose atachments are for vaccum and witch are nonfunctional , also witch is best for the vaccum advance on the distributor, (ive been told it needs to be a timed port ).witch should go to c6 transmition moulator valve.can the fuel tank vent lines be hooked to the vaccum ports on the carb? at least i smart enough to ask.

The vac advance portrd vacuum is on the passenger side of the front metering block (near the choke housing). The tranny can go to the port on the front of the baseplate. Front of carb on the passengerside close to the intake.
I wouldn't run direct vacuum to the tank vents, unless it has the solenoid valve in the line and it is working properly.
