I have a 74 cougar xr7 with a 400 engine. Can anyone tell me where the hoses from the vac tree on the firewall need to go? I have all but one hooked up. Thanks

Here is a picture of the '74 Ranchero I had with a 400 in it from the factory. Sorry for the bad shot, but perhaps it will give you some insight.

It is odd the difference between 1 year on our vacuume tees. I would think that a Ranchero unit would not be so different from a Torino.

I agree. The ranchero tree is similar to mine but not exact either. I'm in a vacuum mess I think. The person I bought it from even has the pcv vac hooked up to the tree instead of the back of the carb. I have the carb spot for the pcv plugged. I tried the pcv into the carb spot and plugged off the tree where it currently is and the engine shakes. I can't find a diagram ANYWHERE. It runs ok I guess. Kinda hesitates when I punch it

The Ranchero was an A/C, C6/400 with PS and PB. It is more of a tree with several ports closed off.
