Has anyone done a normally asperated k1100 and kept the servo? If so where did you take the vacum feed from?

Jim - I don't think you'll get enough vac off the ITB's even if you join all the vac points together - get him to ditch the servo!

If Carling made Mini engines
it would probably be like this one!

I have strong knees and don't like faggots.... and I have a K headed A-series with a servo. I did as John described above and t'ed together the TB's. It appears to pull enough vacuum from the limited runs I have done.

I think the trick is to get the one way valve as close to the servo as possible to help maintain the vac in the servo.

What about using a plenum and single throttle body as you would with a turbo setup?

Or fit a vacuum tank to store what little vacuum you can pull, so that there is always some there when you need it.

Mine gets in the way a bit, but only when it is up. If it is down it does not cause a problem.

Exactly. The vacuum has a built in reservoir and you use a one way valve to keep it there and therefore you don't rely on the vacuum at any given time.

It works on mine....
