vacuum fitting what hooks up to it?

I have an 83 trans am that I jus swapped engines in. Im about 90 % done with it but im having trouble finding where to route the hoses from this fitting. It is the vacuum fitting right behind the carb and it has two exits for hoses. can anyone tell me what hooks up to this fitting, i would greatly apreciate it. Thanks,Eric

In the original application it was the vacuum brake booster and the transmission vacuum modulator.
