14-15" of vacuum for an L78 cam motor is good...maybe the lower compression of the oval ports helps. I only get 11-12" on any of the original cars. Eric (vintage musclecar) is a good source for a rebuild of that 4557.What intake you running on those oval port heads?? Does the motor ahve the L78 cam??
