I am restoring a 78 pace car L-82 engine compartment and am looking for a source on how the vacuum hoses are routed. P good picture would be very helpful as to where hoses should go. Several items have been removed-EFE actuator and sending unit and various lines. Any sources or photos would help. Vehicle did not have a smog pump.
The assembly instruction manual (AIM) has a couple of pages concerning the correct stock hose routing. The diagrams are black and while, but hose colors are listed.

Interesting. We must be living in a parallel universe. I'm doing the same project on my 78 L-82 pace car. Also reworking the interior from the dash to the back.
I too would benefit from pics of the vacuum lines in the engine compartment. I'm talking about all the vacuum lines running to the q-jet. A pic from the two sides and the front would be ideal if someone has the time. I've searched the forum and can't come up with them.
Wow.. you ain't kidding about paralleled universe's.....
I just finished this one the other day. It's hidden on the site but I'll put it up under the help and repair side tomorrow. I don't have one on the cruise done yet.. but if memory serves me correctly there is a good one in the AIM on this.
