Yep!

Has worked flawlessly for me since I set it up. There is a lot there including programming the micro controller.

This same unit is on some corvettes too...

That's what Hammdo was installing it on. I think it should work on anything that needs more vacuum since it should be a vacuum pump. read through all of the install, especially the why section. This pump isn't designed to run all of the time since the car it is on had enough vacuum once it warmed up.

I will read through. My car will not build past 9lbs at all, even when running. When off,the pedal is instantly rock hard.

Exactly, just during the warm up period. The V6 with the duals cams act different during warm up so, the vacuum pump is needed during that time, thus the micro controller for timing in my setup...
