I see about what Dave does... 12-15.  The only time I see more is when I lift throttle at higher rpm.  I don't think you have an issue.

Mike: I think you meant 13 inches of mercury (Hg).  Anyway, at idle it varies. 
When the car is first started and the rings, etc. haven't fully expanded (with 
heat), I will get in the order of 10 or 12 inches of vacuum.  When the car is 
warm, it will be in the 14 to 16 inches of vacuum range.  They only time I get 
20 inches of vacuum is when the car has been run hard and then the throttle is 
closed quickly. 

I have both an AudiMeter Phantom and a Kevin Day TDS-1 digital information 
system (with digital boost/vacuum) to confirm this data.

YMMV
