    Hey everyone, I'm running an L36 with a Paxton Novi 1k on my Monte Carlo SS. It's away for the winter, but spring is quickly approaching.


    I picked up a new intake tube that will have a BOV, and I need to add my boost gauge that I purchased as well.


    Both of these items need to hook to a vacuum line to work, and I was wondering what is a good spot on the L36 for these 2 items.


    Thanks!


    Here's a quick shot of my setup:



    Here's the new tube that I just picked up:

    Just add a T into the brake booster line.

    Or buy a vacuum block.

    earlier cars with the non digital HVAC had vacuum actuators that required a manifold tap to the inside of the car near the RF strut tower. this line connected to the early years plastic L36 uim fitting for the brake booster. later L36's have the plastic adaptor molded without that 1/4" nipple
