I have a rather short vacuum line going from the back of my victor x manifold going to the boost/vacuum port on the aeromotive peice. The line somehow came off the FPR and you all know what that means. While I was in kill mode on 25psi I detonated and leaned out bad. All seems well now, no major damage that I can tell. However I don't want this happening ever again.

Has anyone ran -an line or something that is more reliable then rubber vacuum hose with zip ties?

do they make AN line that small. it seems like it would be less than -3

I have no idea if they do or not. It doesn't have to be -an. I'm just looking for something more reliable/durable then rubber vacuum hose from autozone and zipties.

Has anyone done something like this on their setup?

if i remember, jeff@tempest has done this, i know of others but cant put names to faces so to speak. zipties work well also.

-3 an brake hose actual inner diameter is 1/8" so if you find a an adapter fitting from -3 to the correct thread size on the fpr then I would say -3 is the way to go.

I did this on my car. The aeromotive regulator is 1/16NPT if that helps.

Just get a 1/16npt to -3 or -4 and you are golden.
