One is supply, one is return, and one is for fumes I believe. It goes to the canister on the drivers side of the radiator.

Update on my progress. Got the welding and fab done for the SAS. Cleaned and painted the frame rails, dropped the motor back in and have the wiring 95% finished. I got it to the point that I can crank it over but it just clicks repeatedly sort of like when you have a dead battery. Not sure I have the wiring for the starter and such hooked up correctly. When I hook up the wire for the alternator things start smoking so I know thats not right. Any suggestions? Heres some updated pics.

Well she finally runs! Sounds good too. Now I just need to finish all the little things: cooling package, tranny lines and cooler, brake lines, vaccuum lines, exhaust, axles, cage...anyway im glad she fired right up. I also put in a sweet remote battery setup so ill try and get some pics of that up soon.

LOL first I have to get the axle back under it. I havent even started the rear axle swap so it would look pretty funny with 37s on the front and 235s on the rear.
