Need some quick info on vac routing and tial 38 mm with MBC
Does anyone have the vac diagram handy and where does the vac line go for the tial, for dual port with mbc? I have that saved elsewhere but can't access the info here. Thanks guys!

For the Tial configuration, the top port is the vacuum port and the side port is the pressure port, i.e., MBC plugs into top port and IC pressure line (or wherever you're tapping from) plugs into the side port.

Looks like you are close to getting it together. For what its worth, most V8 intake I have put on I used RTV around the water passages to insure they seal up. All have held up just fine so I am betting yours will be fine.
One tip that worked for me on vac lines, put a small wire tie (garbage bag ties also work) around the vacuum line going to the throttle body. That one was always pulling loose and the tie did the trick.

That's funny, completely forgot about that one. I had one of those and It was a major pain in the butt to work on. Had to replace the engine due to a crankshaft needle bearing failure. Very different engine and didn't make any power until 4,000 RPM.

AH what is going on here?
Ok I have reworked the mbc and I believe I have it correctly routed. In single port mode going off the side of the wastgate (because tial) everything works. However when I run it like stated in this thread...I can't get the wg to crack. What am I doing wrong?
The red hose from the mbc is running to the top of the wg
The black hose on the left side of the T is running to the side of the wg.
Anyone able to figure this out wins good karma
