240z vacuum line hell....

does anyone have a write up on removing all un needed vacuum lines, i got a 240z Z which had the engine rebuilt and the previous owner did not hook anything back up, and i have searched long and hard, and can't find any diagrams, but i just want to bypass the emissions control system as it's un needed here. any one with any input please help thanks in advance.

I had a stock 240z and it only had like 5 vacuum lines.... Unless you want to remove the smog pump, the only thing to disconnect is the EGR.

Have you checked out the Haynes manual or FSM yet? http://www.xenons30.com/reference.html

yeah i have a haynes, chilton, and an fsm and there is only one diagram and it is extremely vague, i'd probably get further, with some close up engine shots of the SU side of the car, if you guys wouldn't mind helping me out, those that are close to stock anyway.

I looked through the FSM & found tons of diagrams... here's some quick scans:

i don't have an air pump, so i'm not sure what to do with those hoses, do i just block them off? also doing away with that whole A.B. valve setup. and the stock air intake.
