Hello,
I recently replaced the rotten 318 in my 73 duster with a good running 318. Unfortunately I bent the hell out of the vacuum tree on the new to me engine when I put it in and didn't realize until i'd given the original engine away on craigslist.

I had no idea how inconvenient it is to track one of these things down. I would like to find a 3 pronged vacuum tree if anyone has one for a reasonable price. I live in Monterey California (93940). It needs to have a brake booster nipple and a secondary at minimum. Thanks!

PS. I'm embarrassed but I don't know what they are really called.
 
It's called a vacuum switch. do a google search and you'll find them
 
Alternatively, go to a parts yard and find a plastic firewall mounted vacuum distribution block. Cleaner install of a single hose from manifold to point of distribution. Donor suggestion ... late 80s Ford.
 
Here is the one I have, pvc and 4 ports.

I don't mean to offend but from my experience with these fittings... Successfully remove it from the intake before marketing. Too darn easy to break them, especially the multiport tree. Good luck to all
