There quite a few late model cars that use a electric vacuum pump. I'm sure they would be cheap from a salvage yard. I cant name one right now, off the top of my head. https://www.amazon.com/Auxiliary-Ele...52944119&psc=1

9 times out of 10, the problem is the booster you have on the car, leaking, or not enough boost.

You are better off going to a 9" dual diaphragm booster if it's due to low vacuum from cam selection.

Vacuum pumps are problematic, and either don't provide enough boost or 'run out' before you're done needing vacuum. Not to mention most are loud, and vibrate a ton.
