Default Vic Jr

Going to a Vic Jr with my Whipple SC and getting rid of the truck intake.

Are there other holes I need to drill into the intake? i.e. Brake Vacuum, Sensors, PCV, etc......? I will also have a Vic Elbow on top.

I plan on deleting the EVAP line so dont worry about that one, but is there another hole, somewhere, that I need?

Thanks

Chad

Yep.
That's what I plan on doing with my setup as well, with a front mount IC.

Yes, its a side mount. Never seen one until I found one locally from a guy who was selling his. Strange looking thing but he said he made good power with a stock motor. I figure with a 383 c.i. and a 4" stroke should be an awesome daily driver. Squirt a little giggle juice in it and it could be dangerous!

The only issue I see with the side mount SC is the discharge underneath the it that goes to the intake. I will have to have a pipe fabbed to make that connection, that's going to be interesting.

The intake, Vic Jr, is what I am questioning. Are there other places that need to be drilled, tapped, welded, glued or otherwise secured to mimic the same components on the factory intake?
