    You can clean them up, alot of people eliminate the cannister and such, but I prefer to keep it all, yet its all cleaned up by using a vacuum block etc.

    Only if they look under the hood

    If your talking about a later engine and have cruise control, and you don't mind the cruise only working when in vacuum, you can scrap a whole lot of useless lines. And yes, of the three vacuum sources for the canister, you don't need all of them. In my case I think I only retained one of them.
