There is a tap near the MAP in the rear of the manifold. There is also a black plastic vacuum line you can "t" into & get a manifold vacuum reading from.

I think there is a tube coming off the intake going to the brake booster. This is where many people tap into for boost gauges. It should work great for a vacuum gauge also.
