Hey guys, my NC v8 was running a little bad on idle so got a vac guage to see if i had a vac leak,

it was sitting at 15, found that the green vac line going into the airbox had come off put it back on and the idle is better and now vac is 18,

what ammount of vac am i supposed to get from these 302's?

18ish is about right.
That line doesn't go into the airbox btw, it goes to the Canister Purge solenoid.

Now it's going into the firewall? You said it went into the airbox. Either way, if it came off it's a vac leak.
