The port on the front passenger's side is where I hooked mine up (Ported vacuum) http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/41RB1W0YGWL._SS500_.jpg At the bottom of this photo I "borrowed" a link to, it's left of the power brake/PCV port in the middle, next to the hole for the mounting bolt. You may need an adjustable vac advance to dial yours in just right, or bump timing up a couple degrees advanced (if not pinging) Jim Blair, Lynnwood, WA '87 Comanche, '83 Jeep J10, '84 Jeep J10 Edelbrock 1406 or 9906 carb on a 360 question Posted by: "Tom Collins" oljeepcollins-at-verizon.net oljeepcollins Date: Thu Jan 28, 2010 11:22 am ((PST)) Anyone on the list using an Edelbrock 1406 (or the factory reman number 9906) carb on a performer manifold? I have a question on the proper vac port to the distributor. I'm currently using the front pass side one. I seem to have a "bog" when I accelerate unless lightly. Also, using the Mallory HEI distr from Zack.
