Mike you want the vacuum taken at the butterfly valve on the carb (ported
vacuum) not from the manifold unless you're using a distributor that is for
manifold vacuum. I think some of the 1500 late model ones use this. Now if
you want a Copper S distributor, with no vacuum, send me some
Barrett-Jackson money and you can have mine.

I just got a Stage II exhaust manifold from Maniflow for $120 and an HIF6
inlet manifold with vacuum take-offs added for $82 plus $55 shipping. The
Mo$$ price for an LCB manifold, not Maniflow, is $420 plus shipping. It is
gorgeous to look at and will require some enlarging of ports to match. If
you are in the market, this appears to be a great buy.
Before someone asks (read "criticizes"), I need the vacuum ports because my
$50 HIF6 carb is from a Harley Chopper and has no vacuum take-offs. It does
have a cool brass primer pump, though.
