I currently have my brake booster and distributor advance vaccum lines hooked up to the rear base vacuum fitting on my Q-jet carb. Is it ok to hook it up this way or should they be connected elsewhere? Thanks!

Thats fine. You may find that your car runs better with the advance line hooked to a "ported" source on the carb. Be prepared to adjust the idle some if you try it. Click search and type in ported. Lots of opinions and info available.
