It's not a bad idea to hose clamp those vacuum lines under the intake so that they don't come off and cause a hard to find leak.

I installed threaded metal plugs into the intake and plugged all 4 ports. The one that the booster hooks to I left alone. I took the bigger port by the TB and made my own vacuum tree, which hides the vacuum lines and looks a lot cleaner. It's also much easier to r/r the intake mani when I need to.

I took my lower to the hardware store and picked out enough brass
fittings to do the job.

Seems like I used 3 or 4 plugs, one straight barb and one 90 degree barb

You just get what you need
