I use this one to activate my meth pump. Fully adjustable from 1-25 psi plus the guy who owns the company is a good guy and very helpful with any questions, etc. I've literally sat on the phone with him for 20-30 minutes and never got even the slightest vibe he wanted me to shut up (and that's def. saying something).

I use a hobbs switch. I mounted my vacuum block on the frame rail as shown below. I wanted it out of sight. I plan on cleaning up the vacuum lines at some point, but not too concerned with it right now. I bought my block from eBay.
