Default Reinstalling engine...what is this?

With all my other projects, this has been put on the back burner and I've done some here and there over the course of about 3 years. Given that, I've forgotten where some parts go. I'm trying to get this finished this week though. Can someone help me out with this one? Thanks.

looks like the vacuum line that plugs into the back on the intake on the left side of the MAP sensor (when looking at the engine from the front of the car). it is usually routed under the main harness and under the heater box hoses.

Either into the "T" for the HVAC or it could plug into the fuel pressure regulator. I don't remember where that is on the LS1.

i just did the sl6 intake swap on saturday that looks like it go's to a 2" round by about 2" call canister with about a 1/2 nipple on the top (sorry dont know what its called) thats on the drivers side fuel rail that sits about 3" or so from the back of the fuel rail, you have aftermarket rails though

"or"

there is a little box that is on one of the slide in "L" brackets also drivers side the rear slide in bracket drivers side that has 2 vacuum lines one runs from the rear of the manifold in to the box (on the "L" bracket) then to the canister described above

Sorry cant tell you the names of the two parts......

I got it fellas. Thanks. Went to the back of the intake by the MAP sensor. Of course, I already had the intake installed so that was fun.
