Best Answer

Cubic Feet per Minute (CFM).

A measure of how much air moves in a minute, measured in cubic feet (the amount of air which fits inside a box 1 foot wide, one foot high, and one foot long).

Most vacuums and fans are rated in terms of CFM. It tells how much air gets moved in a given length of time.

More CFM is usually better, but it usually comes at the cost of more noise.

Where do you run the vacuum line from the turbo 400 trans modulator to an edelbrock performer 800cfm carb?

When you get ready to run the vacuum line from the turbo 400 trans modulator to an Edlebrock Performer 800 CFM carb, attach the vacuum line for the transmission vacuum modulator to the bottom constant vacuum source or the plug that is below the throttle plate. After that, install the vacuum advance to the port that is signaled or right above the throttle plate. Once that is completed, install the large vacuum line to the back of the carb for the power brake.
