It's 14" in park, and the cam can be that big and make that much vacuum when it's custom ground on a 114 LSA.

TTT, but I've got three sets of fouled plugs to show for it.

BTW, I've been looking on the net for a Holley fuel pump rebuild kit and found one place that sells it. The reassembly instructions I posted earlier are for a totally different designed pump from Edlebrock. If you are supposed to do the same thing to the Holley it Pisses Me Off that they don't tell you about that in the technical information on the Holley website.
