intake leak?
Just changed cam from Eldelbcock RPM to Comp 206 int 212 ex.
Car runs fine after adjusting accel ecu The problem is the vacuum is only about 4" or 5".Looks like a bad intake leak.What is the best way t check for this. This is a 350 with a tip setup and a standard tpi ntake with a Elderbrock runners.Never checked the vacuum with the RPM camThanks

The best way and probibly the safest is to take a propane tank with a hose atached. Work the tip around the intake. When your rpm's drasticly increase, you've found your leak.

You can always use a can of carburator cleaner, but this way isn't the safest.
