The brake booster gets its vacume from the engine via that vac line, if you dont plumb the vac line up you will have a pretty hard brake pedal. Its also a good idea to put a one way valve in the middle of it, becouse if the car has a big enough backfire the pressure can travell up the line and it can damage the diaphram in the booster.

Looking pretty good. One day this will be a very nice car. Is that my old engine? I can never remember.
