You only need vacuum when you are crusing right? So why worry about vaccum when you are at rest (idling) or accelerating? I have not studied cruise control installations, but I would think a nearly constant vacuum source when you need it (crusing speed) is what matters.

Tee-off the brake booster for your installation. Then again, how is the constant vacuum created for the brake booster? In the 80+ vacuum diagram, booster vacuum appears to come from the TB as does all the other vacuum points.

How does the vacuum booster asssist work? Me thinks that the vacuum assist is minimal at rest or non at all. So perhaps the vacuum to the brake booster is NOT constant.

I think it's time to break out the books.
