Any HVAC Guys On Here? Need Help Venting A Furnace

I hooked up a 65000 BTU naturally vented furnace in my garage. I still need to run the vent pipe and I'd prefer to go through the sidewall instead of the roof. My intentions were to run the vent piping up along the inside of the roof and then have it exit near the eve. I was hoping to use something similar to an eve vent or dryer vent that would look clean from the outside and have a horizontal run of probably 8-10" through the wall. I'm wondering if this will work and if the gases will be able to make it through the horizontal run on their own. I guess I should have mentioned, it's set up for 5" tubing and runs on natural gas.
 
I don't think I would try that. Go up through the roof or buy a power-vent heater. What you are trying will not draft proper.
