you can reconnect the vacuum line from #6 manifold (left side rear) or go with a vacuum-less Pingel shut off.

Desmog doesn't change the options. If you stay with OEM (or aftermarket) with vacuum you will still need the vacuum line to one of the intake runners. Number 6 is what is used from the factory. cooldude

You can also de-vacuum the OEM petcock which is what I did.  Then it operates as a manual petcock. I just leave mine on aince I have a Dan-Marc.  R&M Works has instructions here:
