Default Vacuum leak & rough idle with the new KB

I've got a Silvy 5.3. The new Kenne Bell is on, but there's a vacuum leak coming from somewhere. Poured soapy water on it, no dice. The truck is also idling rough. Everything's on there good and tight. Any ideas?

Um.... Yellowsierra said you can take some ethanol spray and spray it and it will suck down in where there is a leak..

Thanks for the tip. I ended up taking it to a guy who installs KBs on mustangs, and he figured it out. Now that it's up and running, it is awesome!

I sort of chronicled my experience for anyone considering getting a KB. If you're interested, it's here: http://www.fullsizechevy.com/forums/...d.php?t=163290
