Re: (DaX)
dont mean to sound dumb but where is the brake booster line located. does it run to the big black brake servo on the bulkhead of the engine bay? could you not be more descriptive

Sorry I can't show you a picture, my server is down.
Yeah, the brake booster line is a 3/8" ID hose that runs from the intake manifold to the big black thing behind the brake cylinder on the firewall. Be sure to tap between the manifold an the check valve, not between the check valve and the brake booster.

Re: Help! Golden Eagle vac manifold (Willie)
I ran my vacuum manifold directly off of the nipple on my intake manifold that used to be for the PCV. It's 3/8" just like the brake booster.

Also only drill out what your going to use. Don't go and poke holes into every spot if you only got 3 or 4 items.

there a no brainer to install, as long as you get good vac source.

Re: (evosol)
Thanks for all the good words you guys
We designed the vacuum manifold to be as straight foward as possible. One thing to always remember, as someone else said, to be sure to drill out only the ports you will be using. I have had a few people that forgot to do that. No big deal, it's real easy to do. Hope you guys like the products and we will have some more great products hitting real soon

Re: (GoldenEagleMfg.com)
i dont see how this really cleans up the engine bay ...seems like you would just have longer vac lines coming from one spot rather than short ones coming from the closest ports?

It lets you keep all your vacuum sources in one location for ease of maintenence as well as allows easier installation of added vacuum lines without having to remove the intake manifold to makes new vacuum sources.

Re: (USDMx05)
im about to hook mine up this week. has anyone else had problems with their bov and the GE manifold? I 've heard that the bov opperates better on it's own vacuum source.

I would disagree with this. Mine was fine and source taken from brake booster.
