69 442 vacuum lines help
I am restoring a 69 442, it doesn't have the original 400 motor, it has a 455. The car has an automatic transmission, I had taken multiple photos of the placement of all of the items on the engine when I was prepping for taking the motor out of the car for repainting. The problem is that the phone that I took all the pictures on took a crap and I couldn't access anything on the phone, so I lost all of the photos I had taken showing me the relation of the vacuum lines for the motor. I do have an Oldsmobile repair manual, but it is a copy, and anyone who has a copy of an Oldsmobile manual knows that they suck and the pictures are very hard to see. I can't make out where the lines go, if anyone can assist me in the routing of the vacuum lines, that would greatly be appreciated.

The '69 Cutlass/4-4-2 assembly manuals, also referred to as Product Information Manuals (PIM), have been real good on the copy side in the past, and pretty clear on routing of all lines. If you don't have an assembly manual, I recommend getting one in hard copy (just do a google search and you will find a number of sources to buy one) to help in putting things back together again.
I have both a '68 and a '69 and the '68 copy is horrible but the '69 is very clear.

I also have a good copy of the CSM and my 442 has the vacuum hoses connected. If you would like to see the routing pm me or email @ agh48@aol.com. I'm in Tucaon
