connecting vacuum lines to non cc q-jet

I'm finishing my v6-v8 swap but I'm confused on how to hook up the vacuum lines. I want to run PCV, EVAP (charcoal can thingy), vacuum advance distributer, EGR, and the heat riser on the snorkel if possible. Is there anything else I should hook up? I have a non-cc q-jet from the late 70's I think. I'm going to post 2 pics of the carb with numbers on the vacuum ports as a reference and I'll post the emmissions label that I have from my 83 firebird 2.8l v6 if that might help. I don't have one for the 305 but I think they should be pretty much the same. The power brakes is a given on #6 and I'm pretty sure #4 is the choke pull off since that was connected when I got it. Also I want to put on an electric choke so I tried to put the one from the cc-qjet but the cams diden't fit. Does anyone know if they make a kit to put in an electric choke for this carb. I don't have to pass emissions but it will be a daily driver so I want it to run good. I should have it running this weekend. I can't wait. Also I'd like to thank everyone who has helped me out. Especially five7kid, you really know your stuff. Thanks.

Ok I'm still confussed on what goes where. I think the TVS is a vacuum switch but where do I get those? Also what is EFE and do I need it? I made my own diagram but I need someone to help me or at least tell me what lines need manifold vacuum or ported and I could figure it out from there. I'll post a pic of what I got. Feel free to edit it and make corrections and send it back to me. Thanks for the help
