So my brain has gone blank and its been ages since it was pulled apart but putting the manifold back on lastnight all bolted up good to go and ive come across this issue,

The elbows are all the same same as what i was using before pulling apart, from other photos ive seen the fuel reg is in the correct placement but for some reason the 2 are almost touching no way to get a hose on ether one of them?

Any ideas?

You don't even have a fitting coming out of the intake elbow which is required to fit the reg vac line to

Looks to me like you have a series 1 intake elbow (maybe?) and a series 2 fuel reg

You can see on mine the elbow has 2 fittings, a small one for interior vacuum and a big one for fuel reg vacuum, also the really big one is for the brake booster.

Mine are also pretty close together so maybe you just need a move it around or put the brake hose on first
