Just a thought. Did you use a tree for the lines? Maybe it's not tight
enough or sealed up good enough? Could also be the tree. Also, if I
remember right wasn't there a place you needed to put a plug on one of
the ports for the vacuum lines? Can't remember when I read the install
write up but I thought there was one.

I have the same problem with mine. I have been through my lines under
the
hood and I even ripped into the dash and went through the lines inside
the
truck, Of course I managed to damage my safeing sensor for the airbag
when I
did that, no luck so far finding where the leak is. The problem started
after I switched to a M1 intake manifold. I am starting to wonder if the
leak is actually from the manifold. Anyone know of a really easy way to
find
out? Also anyone know how to swap out the safeing sensor without setting
the
airbag off?

Regards,

Tom Carey
