Any Vacuum Reservoir users?

Looks like I might have to address this because of my supercharger.

I know there are some diff options like using the power steering pump, electric pumps, and reservoir canisters.

The simple canister is the easiest solution......anybody have some experience with these and how well (or poorly) they work?

I have Comp Cams can on my '82 Z28, and it works well. I have an 11.5 :1 compression 383 with a solid roller with .590" int - .610" exh 248 dur int/ 252 dur exh @ .050" lift (which is a pretty radical cam) and my power brakes work fine.

you could also try a corvette master cylinder, they havea larger capacity, and different valving inside and work well for vehicles with non power disc brakes, it would clean up the firewall too. get one for a 68 vette w/ 4 wheel discs and no power assist
