Some of the Reliant economy models had a vacuum take off on the inlet manifold which went straight to a vacuum gauge on the dash .
Some Minis have a carb spacer which has a vacuum take off .
Maybe some other makes as well .
I have not got a clue as to whether the following info is of any signifigance .
On my carbs with the vacuum pipe there is a number cast on the carb body just along from the pipe ; AUC 82 .
Check the original and the new one .
.
PS ; Does it have a wee alloy tag with a number on it attached to one of the floatbowl screws ?
.

Looks like it is possibly from an early Mini twin carb setup . . |
