Wow, I cannot believe you guys are so one sided to not know a vacuum tank when you see one.

I got dozens of these going for guys who didn't have a clue.

Was an easy task.

Float drops, seals atmospheric valve, engine vacuum draws fuel from gas tank, upper chamber fills until float rises, pops open atmospheric valve, vacuum suction stops, fuel gravity feeds to carb.........float drops, repeat.

You hear the idle change and a pop and hiss on a chev.

On a different tack, in 1928 if you wanted a good low priced car you bought a plymouth.

It was 5 years ahead of a model A and 3 years ahead of a chev.
