If I hook a vacuum gauge to my car how many pound of vacuum should the guage read on a healthy motor.

11-15 at idle I would guess. Depends on the condition of the motor and if the idle has been changed.

11-15 is good but around 12/13 is best. My haynes manual says the same and when checking my car (when it was closer to stock a loooong time ago) it read 12.5 - 13

where is the best place to hook up vac guage, I put it on my vac tree and it read 18 in/hg but my boost guage that is ran off the intake reads 15 in/hg, so I am going off the boost guage reading but is that still to much. I have a stock motor and the supercharger belt is off when looking at this
