Default Prochamber on Fbody?

Anyone ever hear of or try putting a MAC Prochamber on an fbody before in lieu of an h or x pipe? From what I've researched, it functions both as a crossover and muffler, which seems brilliant, but I've yet to find any examples or experiences.

Dynomax and Magnaflow both have mufflers like that. The problem is that there really isn't room for a full size muffler where you would need to put it.

x2, Very little room where you are trying to put the muffler, that is why it hasn't been done allot.

It may be a small difference, but the perforations on the crossover may impede flow somewhat. I would think you want as much pulse speed as possible through the crossover since you are effectively creating a draft effect for the following pulse. The difference may not even be measurable, just thinking out loud.
