Electric vacuum pumps

I have searched the forum and was wondering if there was anyone running an electric vacuum pump out there that would be strong enough to pull 10" on a 532 CI.

I like the idea of being able to keep it running when you shut down the engine. Basically I will be running a Ron's terminator injection set-up with gas (primer plus for starting) and to cleanout any excess alky at the end of the day as well. So I was thinking if I had an electric deal this would really ensure clean oil at the end of the day.

Has anyone tried an electric deal with success?

Thanks Adrian

Yes, but it is pricey. Star Pro Stock vacuum pump with remote battery will pull A LOT!

YES ... the $1,800.00 Pro Stock pump from STAR.

The O.E.M. type pumps are merely to assist in providing power brake vacuum.

^^^This is more like what I was thinking. Does anyone use this and how much vacuum can you pull?

17"hg

Have you ever considered a HVAC external vacuum pump and a hose in the pitts. It would take 110V's and one fitting and a hose? Maybe a dumb idea they only flow 6 cfm but will pull down to 29HG pretty quick on a sealed system and can be had cheap used. You could use a conventional pump on passes.
