Ron Hyde runs an electric pump for his power assist clutch here...http://home.comcast.net/~parapantera/site/?/page/Power_Assisted_Clutch/&PHPSESSID=b2c57e67be1faa7a889b133869d31103

>that's a great idea that I didn't think of.  My fancy billet oval air cleaner does not have a vacuum fitting on it but it makes sense to run the PCV off the air filter.  that would seem to eliminate any concerns for vacuum problems off the throttle body.  not sure if i should run the brakes off the air cleaner as well or throttle body, or electric pump...

>PCV vacuum and booster vacuum are fundamentally very different. For braking you need a little flow when you apply the brakes but then no continous flow. Electric pump would work with that. PCV requires constant flow which I think an electric pump is not suited for. My suggestion is to run the breather hoses to the air filter and skip the vacuum part entirely.

>i am running fuel injection and am thinking about eliminating the vacuum take off from the throttle body for PCV and brake booster. Does anyone know of a quiet electric pump to supply continuous vacuum for both (not intermittent for booster only), or does anyone have any experience with an engine driven pump for this? justin
