[DeTomaso] vacuum pump

I'm trying to think of the one I saw off of a 1988 Ford Tempo Diesel.
It was quiet (sort of a burbling sound) and required a large vacuum
reservoir.  It's also expensive

Most of the pumps are pretty loud.  This one is from Comp Cams, I'm
not sure of it's operating volume but it's probably more efficient and
needs less reservoir than the Motorcraft version.  It also has all the
hoses and relays and wiring so you don't have to figure it out like
the Motorcraft part.

Tom's right about PVC.  The above pump is just for brakes.
