no more vacuum leaks for me....
The car is a FC with a FD UIM. UIM is tapped with 3/8 npt which will run upto the vacuum manifold on 1/2" line. All other connectors will be the instant fittings (these are a hell of a lot cheaper than braided stainless line and -an connectors) with a plastic hose. I found a good deal on them from: http://www.stc9.com/Stainless_Steel_Fitting.htm
I have 7 1/8" npt fittings and 3 3/8" npt ports on the manifold. I am planning on running 1/4" hose to everything that needs vacuum signal and 1/2" to the brake booster. pictures: http://i182.photobucket.com/albums/x...3/IMG_1384.jpg http://i182.photobucket.com/albums/x...3/IMG_1386.jpg http://i182.photobucket.com/albums/x...IMG_1385-1.jpg The black square is covering the ugliest plug weld known to man (i am to embarrassed to display that to the public). That is also where the uim is tapped. |
