issues after edelbrock install

Just finished up installing the new edelbrock intake set-up with the lower and their air rails as well. Also put on ap Precision Power Throttle body 52mm at the same time and did the grind and buff of the two "walls" just inside the upper air plenum. Also got a fresh set of the 24# ford racing injectors (has them before but got a new clean set and put them in) Have 2 issues as the car does not seem to have the get up and go it did before.

1. When removing all the old stuff I broke the branch side outlet of the round black check valve fitting that goes in the vacume line system. Got a new one from Napa but now I cant remember how all those vac lines connect back there on the rear pass side of the engine. There is the EGR, MAP sensor, fuel press reg. along with one large barb fitting in the plenum and 2 small barb fittings there too. Also there is the black thing down under the coil that has a thin vac line and one that looks like it comes from within the wiring harness. Totaly lost here. If someone could describe or draw a brief sketch Id sure appricate it. Oh,, The AC only blows out of the defrost vents now too, hoping the vac issue there is all that that is.

2. The new throttle body only opens 3/4 of the way witht the gas pedal all the way to the floor. Shouldnt it be wide open at this point? How do I adjust this?

Ty
thanks alot guys,
Gordon
