I plugged the vacuum line with a vacuum cap and I cut a hole in the metal to accomodate the IAT. There should be a spot to cut that out (there is usually an indent on the metal) but the cheep elements you have to have a drill or something to punch it out.

most open air elements will have a Knock-out for the IAT sensor and other sensor (if you want to hoo them up) , i took a vacumn cap and plugged up the inlet on the TBI where the vacumn line was, this is the hose leading from the TBI to the butterfly on the snorkel
