build a central vacuum pump from a Frigidaire A/C

QUESTION:

I've aquired a compressor that I am going to use to build a central vacuum pump. It's from a Frigidaire A/C but I think it will fit other models too. The Frigidaire part number is 5303271049. It is built by Sanyo and is a rotary type. The information off the compressor is; Model #80665442 C-1R65H2D, 1PH, 60Hz, 115V, LRA 44, R22, and Serial Number 0296 44255. I have a couple of question about it that maybe someone can help me with.
I know I'll need a capacitor to start this, is a 370V 35mfd the correct size?
Anyone know a model number of an appliance that uses this compressor?
What is the copper colored "tank like object" coming from the bottom?

ANSWER:

You go buy a vacuum pump. The refer comperssor is not and will never make a good vacuum pump.
