Hi,

I'm after a vacuum block - eg a billet block with 1/8 aluminum fittings ( Pipe Thread ) for items such as fuel pressure regulator, blow-off valve, MAP sensor, boost controller, boost gauge and any other engine components that require a vacuum source.

I seem to be able to find them only from USA or UK and cost is around $100 but wasn't sure if there is anywhere else locally to buy these at a reasonable price.

42 draft designs has an Australian supplier but probably no cheaper.

Grant, I have a 42DD one. Found it on the weekend... Would be chasing $60 for it. Has a bunch of fittings with it.

Seems they have stopped making them, so trying to find details. It's brand new, only been taken out of the packaging to look at it's awesome billet-ness.

Not sure on cost, but maybe contact a machine shop (or a tafe/high school)

Should be pretty easy for someone to make up, it's really just a single deep hole down the length of the block, with 4 holes drilled in from each side.

All you'd need really is a drill press, drill bits, a tap set, and some files to tidy the edges up.
