look at photos of the open breech of the ShureShot for one idea. Another is to mount it on edge in the beech so it draws from one side and discharges against the other side to flow along the side toward the muzzle to stir it. Mounted centered in the rear on long bolts for standoffs can provide a blender vortex the length of the chamber drawing down the center into the fan to be blown toward the rear to fan out and return along the chamber wall.
Pick one.

I don't care for 6 inch pressure rated PVC. It is very heavy.

I mounted it right near where the barrel is,, easiest nd most convient for me, I used a grinder to get some screw mount off then used lots of electrial tape to build up the sides, nd just pushed it in to secure it, the igntion is a double spark gap
