I'm swapping parts from my old car into a new one. I'm having a problem mounting the vac pump. Last time it was pretty much horizontal but I'm looking at mounting it vertical this time. Any problems doing this?

I don't see why it would make a difference.

should be ok the way you mounted it. up


Light travels faster than the speed of sound,,,this is why some people seem bright untill you hear them speak.

Thanks for the replies guys. I was just a little hesitant as the Moroso diagram kept showing it horizontal. Hey Biginch, I have the same steering rack as you. How are you going to connect yours up? The engine plate looks to be in the way.
