Default Vacuum Kits?

I am in the process of digging the motor out of my 86 951 for no reason other than minimizing personal injury while working on it. The vacuum system is starting to rot pretty bad; hose fittment is loose and there is cracking and what-not all over.

Question: Who sells the best vacuum kit for the best price? I only really care about all the large hoses that connect items such as the AIC- pretty much everything under the intake manifold.

Also, has anyone changed the hose running between the KLR and the manifold to a soft line? Speakingt of the AIC, has this item come loose from it's mounting points for anyone else?

The one I can reccomend comes from Lindsey. I had a vacuum leak issue due to old lines. The kit did the job and came with all that I needed. For the price I didnt expect the quality to be as good as it was, so that was a nice suprise.

The thing under the intake manifold, hooked up to the larger vacuum hoses? yep. Mine broke loose. I pulled the bracket off and just let it be. Not a problem to me.

For the universal vacuum kit it is $30.00. If you want the universal plus the hoses for the ISV it is $70.00.
