Ext. Wastegate & BOV

Ok guys, I am very quickly getting to the point that all that is left to do is get all the vacuum lines hooked up. When I bought the Ty the engine was out, so I didn't take any of this stuff apart. I have the GM manuals but they only show one diagram of the vacuum system, and its a lil vague (to me anyway). And I have the following mods:

-AFPR
-External Wastegate & BOV (Turbonetics)
-Air-to-air intercooler
-Electronic boost controller
-Stock upper intake and Throttle Body with EGR deleted.

What I need is for someone to explain to me, or draw me a diagram, step by step where all my vacuum lines go to, the order they go in, the direction and location of check valves. Basically the entire vacuum system. By all means, please feel free to talk down to me like I'm an idiot on this, because I AM. Any and all help and guidance will be greatly appreciated. Thanks guys!!

I don't see any fuel system mods in your list. Extra boost without the fuel to feed it = dead motor.

I have a Walbro 255 fuel pump, and adjustable fuel pressure regulator. For now, I'm using the stock #30 injectors and a stock tune. The boost controller also controls the alcohol injection kit. For the time being the boost controller will be set low to protect the engine...or atleast try to.

Right now my only goal is to get it driveable. In realize that I will have to be very careful with it as far as boost goes or this engine will not last long at all.
