I ran an electric vacuum pump and it worked fine. I used one that was designed for electric cars, to generate vacuum for a brake booster. I mounted it on a fabricated bracket just behind the driver's side headlamp. With the shield in place it was completely hidden. There's lots of room for one up there and you'll never hear it.
