I rebuilt my six bolt motor, and havr everything installed, sadly I can't plug BOV. I have a turbo intake but don't want to take it apart again, what do I do?
 
I'm assuming you have a non-turbo intake manifold without a boost signal/nipple for a BOV. If that's the case, just tee-off any other vacuum line that goes into the intake manifold. The fuel pressure solenoid line comes to mind. Also, one of the throttle body nipples may work which runs to the post throttle body side. I cannot tell you which one, though as I don't know.

Maybe a 1g expert can chime in. In the end, you should drill and tap a screw-in nipple but some would argue to just swap the manifold out. Properly teeing off of another line could be a good permanent solution and shouldn't net you any drawbacks if installed solidly and the BOV doesn't leak on the vacuum side at all. If you use the FPR line, just make sure the lines are tight and will not come off. Most will recommend against it, but it will get you going. Same goes for the brake booster line, although you will need a tee with two larger ports going to a smaller port. Good luck.
 
Thanks man. What about the P port on the tb?
