You are looking at some old vacuum hose off the car that ran to the boost controller, and a hard pipe that I removed through one of the many deletes. The hard pipe has a flared end which made it perfect to make sure I could pull the vacuum line back out. Then the other end, I put some more vacuum line and attached it to my brake vacuum bleeder.
I pumped it to 25lbs of vacuum and let it sit for about 10 minutes after laying hands on the motor and rebuking the demons out of it
. When it got down to around 15 lbs, the seal wasn't as strong, so I had to pump it back up. Got it back to 25 and it wasn't budging. I unplugged the bleeder and blew some air down the hose, then reconnected the vacuum bleeder. To my amazement, I COULDN'T GET A VACUUM. Had my wife turn the car over, and sure enough... LET THRE BE OIL!!WOOOOOO. So tomorrow putting it back together and will finally be at the point where I'm not embarrassed by the clatter and will post the first running vid on my build thread.
