ok so i cut the brake booster line and attach the end from the intake mani to the nipple on the vacuum mani? then what do i do with the rest of the brake booster line?

 

BUMP

 

Can't you just Tee the brake booster line for the supply line to the vac manifold?

 

so what are you saying cut the break booster and plug one side of the booster line on one side and the other line going into the intake mani plug that one on the other side?

 

does this help:

 

all i see is a red x

 

This?





This is the manifold I make and sell... I cut the brake booster line, clamp the tee fitting down into that and run about a 10" piece of 3/8" hose from the Tee fitting into the bottom of the manifold.

i heated and pulled the fitting out of the manifold, threaded the hole, used earls fittings and staneless lines. i run the break booster right off the vacume mani. there are no T's.
this is not rocket science, use common sense

 

still cant see pics for some reason but only on my post so will you email them to me please.

 

I hope you realise the line going to the BRAKE booster has a check valve about halfway down. That check valve also limits the amount of vacuum that the booster gets. If you replace that line, their is no telling how it would effect your brakes. (More so if you have boost pressure going into it instead of vacuum.)

If you look in the picture i posted above of my setup, the Tee is between the vacuum manifold and the check valve in that line. You want to make sure the check valve is AFTER the tee if you decide to go that route. Otherwise it would not get boost or a strong vacuum reading. You can barely see a lump in the line where the check valve was pressed in. If you cant see the lump, you can squeeze the line and feel for it. Be sure to give yourself at least 2" of room to install the tee fitting and clamp it down, otherwise you will have to find a way to push the check valve into the line further which proves difficult. (Hmm, yes i did make that mistake.)

 

im scared.. would this affect ur braking performance? but i really need one. im only using one vacuum source for three things and my bov doesnt open as easy gettin alot of turbo surge plz help clear this up im in need of one. thanks

 

i am still using a check valve. everything works great.
that is good info, i didnt know what exactly it was for. i figured it was there for a reason, so i left it there.
