Default LS1/LSX intake manifold

On the back of the LS1 intake are 2 vacuum ports. One seems to be a 1/2 line for the brake booster and the other goes to the HVAC system. The one that goes to the HVAC system, what size vacuum line is that?

Thanks,

Sorry, I should have been more clear. everything is installed and I really don't have visibility or much access to get a hand let alone a tape measure. If measuring it was an option that would have been my 1st move. Just assumed this was a place to get answers about LS related topics, but you know what they say about assuming.

Try a couple different sizes of tubing. It's usually a very common size.

It may vary by platform, i.e. Fbody, Ybody, etc. On my C5, it's around 3/16", or maybe 5mm, iirc. Wish I knew exactly......
