 I WAS JUST KIDDING....but I suspect there has already been a run on these at
Jegs and Summit.

There ARE claims that it increases HP, but I always assumed it was hardly
measureable.

That has to be the cheapest horsepower you can buy. 10.7 is impressive.

Oh ya!  I forgot to tell everyone that we added 10.7 HP on the dyno after
installing the vacuum SYSTEM.

I was told if you could pull 5in. you could expect up to 4HP per cylinder.
Some
racers run so much vacuum

they have to reverse the seals to prevent air from being pulled into the
block.

One of our local speed shops has a GM, electric vacuum pump from a cobalt or
something they say will pull between 5 & 8 in. They want $ 300.00 for it.
Until
budgets improve I have gone with the exhaust extractor

set up to pull the vacuum on the catch tank to act as an oil seperator.

Anybody have any idea how much vacuum we are talking about that will have
beneficial value?
