Simple, but not to me
I have a 1969 Ford F100, 360 was manual 3 speed, converted to Auto C-6. I added a Comp 270H cam and Performer intake with Holly 4 Bbbl carb. I need to know a couple things that will be simple to many of you and I apologize up front. I need to know if the vacuum line from the trans to the intake should go to the back of the intake. I also need to know if I can run the brake booster and the trans vacuum line off of that port together. If not then where would I get the vacuum from for either the brakes of the trans?

Re: Simple, but not to me
I always plugged the modulator valve vacuum line to the vacuum tree on the back of the intake. The brake booster should be plugged into the back of the carb or the back of the riser plate just under the carb.
Since you are using an aftermarket intake, you might not have as many plug in options as factory.

Originally they both plug into vaccum tee on back or intake. When using different intake u plug into back of carb. Or take the plug out of aluminum intake and tee off of that.
