Just used one of those plastic multi sized T's that every automotive shop has where you break off the ends for a larger fitting.

Since the line to the meter is hard nylon I just put on a piece of tight rubber hose on the end of that and connected it to the T. Otherwise I just cut one of the vac lines from manifold and inserted the other two connections of the T in-line.

Not sure how well it works since I'm still working on the car.
