At this time I think a Painless set up your best bet.


And buy a book.

About the vacuum,

Cap every port and worry about it after the car fires.

Set timming and idle, play a bit.

Then hook the carb port that sucks when the throttle is opened to the appropriate port on the distributer. The correct port being the one that advances the timing.

Go from there.

diagram

This is for a -74. It is probably different from year to year. Anyway, you might be able to get an idea of how to draw the hoses. Hope it helps you out!
