I'm new here, but been on the phone with Cliff a few times already. I bought myself a 70 C/10 for my birthday present to myself last year, and had it running with the carb that was on it, not running right, but running and idling long enough to know the radiator is good, etc.
I tore apart the pre 68 carb that was a rebuilt unit on it for Cliff to figure out what it was, and he said it was a bad core to bother rebuilding, so I just bought a 7029202 for it.
I also have "the good book" as well, and after reading it I have a question. The carb I took off didn't have the drilled vacuum port for power brakes, neither does the one I bought, so I went and looked under the hood in the rain this morning, and the intake, right behind the carb, has the power brake booster line running straight to the intake manifold. Is that ok? Should I drill and tap my baseplate like in the book? or leave that as it is and focus on the rest of the rebuild?

Mine has been connected to the intake since forever with no problems.
