Vaccum Mayhem! PLZ HELP!

Ok, so Im two seconds away from starting up my car for the initial breakin, but I have a few problems.

First the Vaccum lines. I know where alot of them go, but Im still confused on a bunch of them, and im pretty sure i gotta get them right to have the car run right.

So

1. First does anyone have a pic of the front of a stock carbed car that they could post, that would have all the original emissions stuff on it. I think I could go off of that.

or!

2. Could anyone describe to which vaccum lines go to what on the carb. I have some of them hooked up, but others are still open.

3. There are two other things that i cant remember how to hook up, the sensor in the intake manifold, right in front of the carb, and the (as the only way i can desribe it) vaccum thing that hangs above the water pump, that was like 4 lines coming out of it, also dont remember what to do with that.

If anyone could help me that would be great, thanks.!

Assuming you have a carb, check the Carb forum. Also the "Father/son" project sticky at the top of the Engine Swap forum.
