Yes Gary. Just looked at my 67.5 1600: has a brass ?compression? fitting on
the carb to a hard brass tube which goes under the carb then up between the
two carbs and over the linkage heading at an angle toward the rear of the
valve cover.   The brass tube ends just after it passes over the linkage. Then
there is rubber tube from there to the dizzy.

Peter,

Good suggestion.  The vacuum hose can always be
glued to the tubing if it is a
little loose.  How often does one need to
remove the vacuum hose from both
ends?

Wait a minute.  Didn't the 1600s have
brass tubing all the way to the vacuum
unit?  Or, was that just early cars?  I
know the 1600 vacuum units have a
compression fitting for a tubing connection.
Was the vacuum line rubber part
of the way and then tubing?
