Out of curiosity, why do you need to know this value?

The right fittings to tee into the lines and a gauge to read vacuum is all that is really needed. The exact fitting type I'm not too sure of.

if you have a vaccum guage, it comes with some soft cone things that wedge into or around fittings.

i don't know what normal is, but mine pulls about 28 inches
