I have replaced the vacuum tubing in the engine compartment . There is a manifold on the fire wall and the tubing that passes through the firewall pushes onto this manifold. so pull off the old and push on the new. Same inside under the dash.
probably too late but my tankwas badly rusted and I cleaned it out with a 50/50 mix of water and muriatic acid. Then I soldered on 14 patches on the outside of the tank over the holes then got a seal kit from my local jobber and lined the inside of the tank by rolling the tank around. It worked. The tank has been in use now for 1/12 years with no leaks. (I did test it before installing it.
I,d like to clarify my query. Can I disconnect the engine compartment tubing from the fire wall or does the tubing pass through the firewall? from the interior I can see what looks like a block that may be a junction block or a manifold? I was hoping that tubing pushes on to this block
I converted my 64 to front disc brakes. A company called Scarebird Classic Brakes will send you the bracket and a list of off the shelf calipers and rotors you can pick up from your local jobber or on line.. Mine were from a 90 GMC 1/2 ton pickup . To get this done I sent him my spindles and he made the brackets using my spindles. Now you can order just the bracket. They were located in Washington State but he said he was moving to Arizona. That was in late 2016. A cheap upgrade.
