There are TWO vacuum nipples on the back of the manifold, on your new one there is still two, but only ONE is functional. The other is sealed off. You have to -rig up a new system to run everything. DO NOT T into your brake booster, I chose to T into the line for the hubs since it only requires +-2lbs of vac to fully hold them, and I was pulling +8lbs with the manifold.

I also ran into a lot of little things that help out a lot, if you do this and have questions just PM me.
How much did the Jasper motor cost if you dont mind me asking? Also any tuning issues?
