Vac for Brakes

OK, I'm going to be hooking up a 650 cfm holley double pumper to my slightly modded L69.

My brakes run off of a large vac port on the back of my old cc Qjet. Of course my Holley doesn't have this port, and I don't believe it even has one that's similar. It's a 4011 series carb.

So what do I do, rig it up to the port in the intake manifold?

The manifold port works fine, that's what its for.

Most (but not all) Holleys have a similar port on the front of the carb.

That's what I'll do, attach a T to the PCV.

Thanks again.
