Vacuum Lines Clean Up

I have a olds 350 in a open wheel hot rod, wondering if there is a way to clean up the vacuum lines? I have the list advance one, trans modual, and a vacuum gauge. But it looks like there are lines going everywhere, Is there a way to clean them up since they are right in the open?

I have a 2 hookup tree or whatever you want to call it on the front of the manifold. but can i rerun these lines in the back of the motor or anything?

You probably don't need the temp activated vacuum switch. Follow the lines and see where they go. You do need the vacuum advance, trans modulator, vacuum booster, and PCV.

The motor is a 1973, all I need is the very basic. Just want to make the engine look a plain as possible.

Intake Manifold to:
• Transmission modulator
• Brake booster
• PCV
• Distributor vacuum advance (or use vacuum from carb. port)
• A/C controls (if any)

2"-long line to choke pull-off diaphragm on carburetor.

Steel lines between automatic choke and heat exchanger in intake manifold, --OR-- use an electric choke.

That's about all I can think of.
