Thanks Vic.
I have an engine stand . And yes being organized is going to be key.
Kitchener! Wow, I’m only an hr away...near Grand Bend. Feel free to drop me a line. I built a ‘90 in my single car garage a couple winters ago.

From the pics it looks like you have good steering shaft clearance from the header. How’s exhaust clearance going into the tunnel? Would love to get together to compare builds once you’re up and running.
In the first picture, on a Mustang, that line actually does a u-turn with a factory molded hose and attaches to a metal "T" that is threaded into the bottom side of the upper intake plenum (between the top of the valve cover and the bottom of the plenum near #7 and #8 cylinders) and the other molded hose coming from that hidden "T" goes to the PCV valve. That is so that the PCV system can evacuate any oil residue that might accumulate in the upper intake.
In the second picture, I am assuming that you are referring to the "blue" nipple? In a Mustang, that attaches to a vacuum canister that supplies vacuum to the HVAC mode doors.

Thank you for the reply.
So the blue nipple is not needed anymore and I could run my brake booster off the other line?
