Hi Le Roux, I think you'll be the first to try a top-mounted radiator on a Rotary install. Generally and with reference to those Hans Meyer articles, the pressure on top of the cowling is near zero or even negative until you get really close to the windshield.
I won't say it can't be done but it's going to be tricky - you may need a fan and most likely will need a fan during ground operations. Good luck - keep us posted ... Jeff
