I have a 1987 Dodge Raider. It has California Emissions, I live in Texas and this is a trail rig.

I am converting to the Weber 38 DGEV, my question.

On the Distributor I have the double vacuum advance, can I just switch to a single or how do I run the vacuum lines?

Can I buy the single? And will it fit my distributor?

i also have the double vacuum advance on mine with a weber 34dgec. hook the vacuum line to the bottom nipple and plug the top. itll work just fine.i removed all the other vacuum lines and compnents with the exception of this line from the carb baseplate to the dis. youll have to plug the other ports with bolts or plugs. oh, when you install the weber, you`ll see two holes in the intake where the carb goes. tap and plug these holes as not doing so will cause the coolant to wear through the base gasket for the carb and leak down into the intake causing lean mixture and overheating over time.where in tx you at?
