Got a quick question for the carb gurus

Ive purchased a intake/carb setup and not realized i dont have any sort of vaccuum ports on either, but i have a carb flange adapter between the two, has anyone drilled and tapped one of these for a vaccum port?

its a super victor intake and dominator carb


thanks,
greg

they have to have some sort of vacuum port don't they? nothing behind the holley, on the runners? or possibly a port on the back of the carb? i haven't ever had either intake or carb in my hand but i thought they all had at least one port.

but to answer your question, yes you can drill and tap the spacer as a vacuum port. hope this helps.
