Looking for VAX6000 items

Its going to be interesting for sure. I am currently running some better power into the shop. The requirements for the 6000 is 3 phase. I just finished reassembling the power inlet box and I'm pretty sure it will run fine on 2 phases. I had to trace the right phases to energize the contactor and power the convenience outlets. I really want to find some engineering drawings for it. The drawings on bitsavers helped a lot but some parts are blurry and unreadable. I love the big iron. I had no choice at the time but I regret getting rid of my 780. I contacted the guy who has it now recently and after 7 years he's getting ready to start work on it. I actually think I have some 4000 parts in the archives somewhere.Let me know if you get one. I really wish there was a hobby emulator for the 6000. The Charon emulator looks pretty robust but commercial only.

What are the power requirements?? I?ve only ever seen one VAX 6000 it was in a Datacenter I had hardware in 20 years ago. I?ve recently become interested in getting a VAX 4000, though I keep trying to convince myself it would be crazy. Zane
