    No, and no.

    I can get a brake pressure kit for about $45.00 from Stainless Steel Brakes. It's more $$, but then I have another tool.

    Oh, and with the SS cat-back 2-1/2" pipes, I can barely hear the engine - let alone a vacuum leak. I'll check closer tomorrow.

    Yup, tools are tools. Thing I like about them on Hot Rods is knowing for sure where the problem is on the brakes, ends all the questions like this. I also use mine when I set the proportioning valve.... Once you know what the front and rear pressures are, you know which way to go with the proportioning valve to get the braking the way you want it...

    And besides, having too many tools would be like having too much horsepower, can't imagine it ever happening to me!!!!!
