    TU Anodized Aluminum Vacuum Block question

    http://turbosunleashed.com/shop/prod...roducts_id=269

    i'm very interested in buying this vacuum block but i'm wondering if Chris could tell me the overall length of the block?

    what i would REALLY like though, is the same block but with 3 ports on the side instead of 2 (so 5 outlets total). if Chris can get a block like that i would like to buy one ASAP (!!!), but if not i'll go ahead and get the one that's available on their site right now. also, if a block with 3 ports on the side would be available i would need to know what the length would be on that as well (it's being installed into a rather tight fitting location on my Turbocharged Cutlass).

    4 ports will do the job and i'll order it if i have to, but a block with 5 outlets would be really nice for a certain add-on i'm planning on later

    thanks

    Hi Joshua,

    Thanks for your interest in our products. We have sold out of what we originally had in stock but do expect delivery of more tomorrow. Once they are here I will provide overall dimensions. If you are looking for additional ports, multiple vacuum blocks can be easily joined together using double male 1/4" fittings.

    i could join multiple vacuum blocks together, but like i said it's going into a tight space so i don't know if that would work (i guess you'd have to see my car to see what i'm talking about).

    my brother (iTurbo) has a very similar vacuum block which has 4-ports on the side:

    basically i need something that is in between the one you have on your website and the one i just pictured. i just can't seem to find one anywhere i wish i could use this extra block iTurbo has but it's 5" long (and i'd need to remove the end plugs and tap them to use them as ports). i need something about 3" long or so.

    thanks for the reply Chris, i'm looking forward to seeing what the actual length of that block is i need to order this ASAP - i'm getting my Turbo Cutlass professionally dyno tuned at a friend's shop in Colorado soon ( www.kazmotorsports.com ) on a DynoDynamics machine.

    You could always drill and tap an additional port.
