The only problem I could see about the exhaust is the chance of pumping exhaust into the ccv. What if you were in deep water or mud and the pipes were under water would the exhaust take the easiest route thru the ccv? Just mt .02
Thanks Neal, it has to be purple (plum crazy) right! After all it's a Mopar.
BTW, It has the CCV too...in both collectors, it gave me an additional 28 HP on the dyno. Last pull was 648HP, no bottle 102 octane gas.

Not sure about going under water but if the exhaust is still getting through the end of the pipe it should give enough suction on the CCV to help extract the fumes. It may take a little tweeking on the nipple in but you can get quite a bit. Our diesels move a tremendous amount of air, like the cuda does...probably more.

I pulled 8 inches of vacuum on one of our trucks. The key is the weld the nipple into the end of the longest run of straight pipe (away from the bends and/or mufflers). You want the exhaust gases to be as non-turbulent as possible. The picture I posted in the link shows the angle(s) and depth needed to get the venturi effect you're looking for. Google up Bernoulli's law for more info. I usually smack the nipple up and down untill I get the most vaccum up at the CCV.

No but really, good thought Neal! I suppose that could be a very real situation.
I guess Cuda is probably right even if submerged as long as the nipple is installed correctly to maximize the vacuum it should be fine.

Anyway Tim not for nuttin' although a good answer but it seems stacks are the answer to most all problems. LOL.
