Ernest,
How do you propose the cool the engine on the ground?
Just curious, as Kelly Troyer was comtemplating remotely mounting his radiators too. I don't know what he finally decided.

One other thing I left off. I expect to get help from ground effect. As air is forced under the plane by the prop, it gets squeezed between the plane and the ground. The wheel wells are at one of the lowest points, corresponding to the area of greatest squeeze.
Is your engine still mounted? I know you run it occasionally. Perhaps you could string a water mammoter from the wheel well and a few points on the turtleback while it's sitting there. That'll end the guessing and tell us straight up what the pressure differential is. It'll be easy to compare that to what others here are seeing and know if it'll have any chance of working.
