I still have mine but have no idea where it is plumbed to or even if I need it with the way the engine is now configured. Anyone got some pictures?

I'll check to see if mine(72GTS) is a single port and post a picture, but they are reserve vacuum for the HVAC system; plumbed with vacuum hose thru the firewall to the actuator on the dash.

The 21rst picture on the link below is of the transmission tunnel with a single port coffee can showing the single hose going thru the firewall. The large hose that looks like its coming out of the top of the can is the power brake vacuum line. the small vacuum tube going into the firewall with the vacuum line from the can is the heater hose actuator line. hope this helps.

Maybe it came off of the Ranchero when I did the 302 / AOD swap.
