vacuum reserve system
with the new engine the brakes arent great at idle. i figure the large cam isnt making a whole lot of vacuum. i see these vacuum reserve systems in jegs. crane cam's cost 44 bux. is there any way i can make my own? i have access to welders, heli-archers(spelling) and metal. if i make my own how large should it be, can it be too big? have yall guys made your own?
thanks

What size cam do you have in there now?
By the way...I was under the impression that vacuum is greatest at idle and as an engine increases rpm, there is less vacuum. I don't know for sure though...maybe I have it mixed up.
