Cool carbs and vacuum accesories

i am thinking about running dual side drafts on my car, but i am worried about not having enough vacuum to operate my other accesories like; power brake booster and windshield wipers. what other way can i go about this? the only other alternatives i could come up with was to either run a single side draft and tap the manifold or run a electric vacuum pump. any thoughts/suggestions/comments?
thank you for your time and your help.

just get a belt driven vacuum pump off a diesel motor and get the vacuum can off a ford truck, then build your hose harness with that

it is simply a holding tank for vacuum, ford used big soup cans for a long time to make them, some vw cars have a nest looking thingie on the underside of the hood, they usually have a hose fitting and are airtite
