Generally you'll be ok for the booster.
You could always get a diesel alternator (with vac pump on back of it) if you were worried about that.

Wasn't worried about it at all actually. Even IF my motor wouldn't turn back to vacuum after I let off the gas from WOT I still have 1 or 2 brake pushes left. I see no reason at all to be worried about it.... if someone can prove me differently go ahead...

I'm not blowing off his advice, I am just saying I'm not really worried about that aspect of it. All advice is welcome, you can't learn anything if you're not willing to learn!

Thanks!

Still looking for injectors

Another idea that you could use (what I have installed on my turbo diesel B) is an electric vacuum pump (not on the alternator) and a reservoir. You could put on a check valve before your reservoir and have plenty of supply for your devices. I pulled my check valve from a Honda Civic (all 92-95 Civics use them) and the reservoir from an 80s Cutlass

I'll probably just leave the stock system alone for the first rendition of this because I'm sure the first setup won't be the last lol. You know if any Toyotas have a system like that? (Maybe a truck with a 22rte?) I can get Toyota parts for cost, and knowing my dad we probably have something like that sitting in the building. We have older toyota truck bumpers that I wanted to put on this thing but the chrome wouldn't look right on it haha.

Thanks for the idea! If the stock system doesn't work out too good that's probably a good way to go.

BTW, I love those Mercedes diesels... hell, I love all diesels... If I had more money, I'd own a turbo diesel of some sort! So, nice rides you got!

DO NOT UNDERESTIMATE THE IMPORTANCE OF YOUR VACUUM!!
The check valve plays a vital role.
Even NA motors take time to build vacuum from WOT.
Power adders will inhibit the engine's ability to build vacuum so badly, that you likely will wreck before you feel the pedal begin to soften.
