    yea i was looking at pictures and didnt see the little nipple above one way valve lol.
    heres one for you i have a pipe from the top of the fuel pressure regulator it comes up to the carb elbow and also has a tee off one for the accelarator pump and one that doesnt go anywhere am i rite in thinking i can get rid of the pipe for the accelarator pump as it works fine without it? but whats the other pipe for is it a vent to air?

    You can get rid of the pipe that goes to the accelerator pump jet, works fine without but some choose to leave it on.

    The other pipe is for your standard boost gauge, if you choose not to use it remove the pipe and block the outlet off. Best way of doing this is fitting a normal T-piece in place of the double T-piece

    If you look down on the bulkhead where the speedo cable feeds through you'll see a pip next to it which it connect too. Make sure its a tight fit, you don't want a leak there
