TPI Vacuum question
I’m installing a TPI set-up on my 82 and had a vacuum question. I need to tap into a vacuum source to operate my headlights and climate vents. My first option would be to tie into the brake booster line.
But since I’m not running egr could I attach a hose in the manifold where the hose coming from the valve cover normally go? It’s the spot on the driver’s side right below the runner about middle ways. I have it capped off right now.
Thanks!

Take it from the same sort of connection, IE intake manifold or whatever, as it came from on the Crossfire. I think you are going to be disappointed in the difference in performance.

Unfortunately, I have to agree. Theres not a huge difference between the Crossfire and the TPI.

actually the crossfire was removed and replaced with a edelbrock intake and holley carburator by the time it got to me...
I had a 87 firebird formula 350 TPI a few years ago and was happy with the performance from that.
So I'll be ok
