After a lot of searching I found this...
"This is the formula to figure your output booster pressure.
Force in pounds = (Diaphragm area in square inches) x (manifold vacuum in inches Hg) x ½
Example: 7” single diaphragm booster with 17 inches of vacuum. 3.5” x 3.5” x 3.14 = 38.465 square inches x 17 inches of vacuum x 50% = 326.95 psi"
Not sure how accurate this is, any thoughts?
It doesn't directly answer my question, but it does give a direct means of comparison.Last edited by ceh383; 06-22-2008 at 01:48 PM.
