Default vacuum source

1969 427 with Edelbrock air gap intake with Holley 750 carb. Starting to work on getting the headlight and wiper doors working and am wondering where to get the initial vacuum? This intake has one large fitting behind carb. for vac. I have the hose for the power brake booster hooked to it. Should I just "t" off of this fitting/hose for the wiper/headlights or is there another source of vac. that I am missing? Thanks for any replies/opinions.

Either T off or get a fitting with more than one port.
