<--- not a pilot... Yet... Manifold vacuum isn't something I'd depend on. As engine load goes up, manifold vacuum goes down. I'd worry about instruments getting good vacuum on climbout. If the engine cuts out, your manifold vacuum will drop as well (even if the prop windmills). Using exhaust to produce vacuum is interesting too, I bet it would work, but I doubt you'd get good vacuum with the engine windmilling.
I suppose i'm making the argument for a vacuum horn, or an engine driven vacuum pump, and am assuming the engine will windmill.
