vac lines

Well im up to hooking up all the vac lines and i think i know where they go but i cant check the sticker on the hood because my hood says my car has a v8 in i and it doesnt.SO does anyone have a pic of the v6 sticker so i can see exactly where the hoses go. I want to be sure.

doing better than I did. That's my sticker & I still didn't know where all the lines went. Took 2 days of looking @ digital pics & looking at other engines to figure everything out.

NO not really., I know the head gasket was leaking but when i got the motor apart i found out my intake was leaking also, it wasnt torqued down at all. The bolts could be taken out with a ratchet and one hand!!!! . Then when i was putting the head back on the guy around the corner and some guy down the street got into a arguement that my was was/was'nt a 2.8 . But as far as me having problems, no not at all. I broke one bolt in the head from the exhaust , everything else was very easy.I even got time to paint the valve covers, plenum, alt.
