vaccum assist brakes

[Preston87GN]

My 87 GN was converted before I got the car.Someone just put a t fitting in the pcv valve line and ran straight vacuum hose to the booster. I believe there is supposed to be some sort of a vacuum brake and also I saw a vacuum block with the vacuum port for vacuum assisted brakes.Is there a vacuum hose kit for these.

You can get a billet vacuum block for the TB that has the extra fitting on it for the booster, and the inline filter is available at any parts house. The hose is just 3/8 or 7/16 fuel/vapor line (I forget which size it is).

It's 3/8 line.

thanks for the reply...all the hosing is there just no filter and they used the pcv hose to branch of of.

That's fine the way it is. The vacuum block is not necessary. All it does is relocate the line you already have by about 2 inches. Vac source remains the same....

The source at the pcv can sometimes be weaker as it is allowing air to pull past the pcv and decrease the in/hg a bit... Mine was like that and worked fine though.
