But you don't want to be absent mindedly pumping the brakes on the way to a stop or you pump off all your vacuum reserve. I always keeped the idle up around 1100 in gear with a 263/271 @ .050 108 LSA cam. Course you need a good booster and a good check valve. Last edited by Dodgem; 10/15/12 09:42 AM.
