The blue flying saucer on the fender is actually my vacuum amplifier. The VCV output goes to a seperate "in"line on the vacuum amp, then through a "damper (#72) and then to the tranny. I would say the bleed down on the modulator is probably more like 5 seconds then 10 when it is sucked down to 15" Hg.
