Building a 392 with a Blower, the fuel injector block has four ports on the right side, where would those be plumbed too? I realize they would be ending up at some sort of fuel block, but couldnt find good images on google. It would be four rubber hoses exiting the Injector. Not steel lines like modern race cars.

Sounds like you've got a 4-port Hilborn-style injector body. Injector lines can be on either side, or both. Here's one atop an early Hemi. (Images taken from open internet sources under the "fair use" definition in copyright law)

It could also have been plumbed with hard-lines.

General plumbing layout. You would have 4 nozzles instead of 2.
