Evap cannister vacumm line

[carcraft302]

Well I finnally got the electircal system tamed and am now working on setting up the vacumm system and throttle body! I am making progress and I may be slow but boy I am slow! The question I have is every diagram I see has the evap cannnister line going to the vacumm on the throttle body. I also have a vacumm port on the oil fill tube that goes to the throttle body vacumm port. Can I tee into the oil fill line with the evap cannister line or would I be better off running the evap cannister line to one of the vacumm ports under the upper intake manifold? I worry about stupid stuff but I guess thats the way I am LOL. I really couldn't have gotten this far with out the help I've gotten here so thank you. I hope to be up and running by the end of the month then off to paint land. Corvett victory red, black rims, bumpers and tail lights!

Run the vacuum ball off the upper intake vacuum, with a check valve in the middle. Then the ball goes to the blower box.

Best to leave the line direct from oil fill to throttle body.

You should be able to run separate vacuum lines for everything else- PCV, brake booster, fuel pressure regulator, MAP (if mass air), and any pollution gear you may keep.

EDIT: I learned how to read...

What engine/EFI system are you running? If you are using the Mustang EFI then the evap canister will hook up under the front of the upper plenum and you should have a perge solenoid inline to the canister.

Thank you! That was what I was thinking but I was worried about too much vaccumm for the evap system. I am using a crown vic engine that was 86 SD. I up dated it to mass air. It was already HO out of a police cruiser. Added the E303 cam, over sized valve springs and ported heads. I got all the other vaccumm lines ran. I have one port on the upper intake that I can use. Thanks for the info...
