Is the 20-20 while holding steady at 1500-2000 rpm or at idle?
Thanks!

At idle. As the throttle is opened the vacuum should start to drop.

Too low, you have a significant vacuum leak.

Depends on what a "1.7 RR" is.
This ain't Twitter, feel free to use a few extra letters.

Seriously? You are losing credibility here.

Every tech know that means "roller rocker"

My vacuum shows 16.5 at idle though no twitter talk mods, lol... Also, this old engine is still eating up about a qt. of oil every 1k or so, The plenum job will be in the near future, just need ambition and time

Not a tech but if you said 1.7 RR to me I would have no idea what you were referring, please just dumb it down so us slow folks can follow the thread.
