air pump into vacuum pump
so i was thinking while sitting in the rain at the track i am going to hook up my air pump so that the inlet takes air from my valve cover.and jjust vents to atmosphere.and see if it makes a difference at the track.any input on this idea?

To make a proper vacuum, you need some pump power, and i am not sure
if the smog actually makes enough. But an vac pump DO release a lot of power, especially at high rpm, gave 14 hp on my ford tt. The position of the sucker in the valve cover is importent to. Moroso makes a nice one.

There is a real vacuum that came in the 81-85 Olds engine and it is under
the AC compressor and it is belt driven.
It a v8 that came on Buik and Olds B and C bodies 81-85 and in some
Caprices station wagons up to 1990.

We have done it any so have many others. It is a waste of time as it does not pull enough vacuum for high rpm. We ended up converting to a moroso custom built setup that works well, but is a race car only design.
