350 build, need help with a few things

someone gave me an entire 350. its a 1993 block, 80's model heads. its torn all apart, so this will be my first build. haha. but i have everything ordered and almost ready to go. just waiting for our maxima to get fixed before i start the build. okay, well, i got an MSD dizzy, its the street fire 5554. has vacuum advance. also, i was given the stock 4 brrl intake manifold with EGR, with the quadrajet (that's supposedly just been reworked) that goes with it. its going into a 1992 rs. okay.... i need to know where does the vac line for the dizzy go? is it a vac line on the carb or on the manifold? also, i wanna see if any one has the vac diagram for the quadrajet, or just any advice as to where the lines should go. or a link showing everything like that? the motors going to be stock for now. i know for sure that theres a metal line on the back of it that goes to the break booster, and about the fuel line. that's about all i know about it. pretty ignorant here when it comes to that. thanks in advance!!!

Re: 350 build, need help with a few things

Any vac port on the carb that is from the atmospheric side of the throttle blades, (vac when throttle opens), will do. What kind of choke: elec or little tube?

Re: 350 build, need help with a few things

The little tube has to be plumbed into the exhaust crossover of the manifold so heat can get to the spring in the round metal housing and slowly open up the choke as it gets warmer.
