I added numbers for the questions to make it easier.

Are you saying that the injection pump is vacuum operated, and that the line from the throttle body to the injection pump is required? That is the reason that I need to keep the throttle butterflies?
Which rod are you referring to?

Ok so then there must have been a nipple on the intake pipe that I don't have. Thank you.

Ok that makes sense since that one would be measuring the temp coming out of the radiator I think. I will use the one in the head and see if I can get away without an aux fan.

you dont really need a vacuum pump in the case, personally, I would get a block off cover and use an electric setup, just my opinion though

Ok so the side without the hose could potentially be used for a brake booster? I'm going to try to keep it to manual brakes so I will remove the pump if I can, but you said that the injection pump is vacuum operated? So does the engine produce enough vacuum for that without the separate vacuum pump?

Makes sense, thanks.
