Ive looked around on the forums and have not been able to find a definitive way to keep the brake booster active with the duraspark swap. I was thinkin that I might be able to pit a T in between the manifold and dizzy line and run it to the booster like that? Though that seems like it might mess up the vacuum advance while actuating the brakes. Any help would be awesome. Thanks

The brake booster goes on the bic vacuum nipple on the back of the bottom of the carb. Don't matter weather u are using the feedback carb with metering block, any other 2150, or any other carb. They will all have a nipple for the booster. Hope this helps

The brake booster goes to the large nipple on the manifold vacuum tree and the PCV goes to the base of the carb. If you dont have the big nipple on the carb you can pull the pcv from the vacuum tree also. You dont have to worry about the advance when you put on the brakes normally your foot is not on the gas at the same time.
