I have got the 3rd vacum from a second machine I use for spares.

It would be difficult to fit a third vac motor in most all two vac machines due to size restriction. There simply would not be enough room for a third vac.
However I like the Ninja idea of the booster vac attached externally. I have a Cross American in line booster box which is great on long hose runs and would increase the power of a single or twin vac machine considerably. I know some people have built their own booster boxes.

You won't be able to simply add in another vac to a 2-vac machine - it will increase the amperage draw of the circuit past what it is capable of. You'll probably cause a failur of the machine's internal wiring and also blow the customer's fuses when you switch the 3rd vac on.
There's another thread going on this forum about a 3rd vac on a ninja, some useful advice in there

I see what you mean about the amps. I was thinking of running a second lead from the 3rd vac to mains. Even if to fit the third vac externally. But I have to check the voltage etc, first. I will iook next week.
I would rather do that than pay nearly £500 for a vac booster.
