The fit to the ducting could be easy that way. So long as there is struture
to support the filled radiator there would be no problem. For oil changes,
suck the oil out through the filler neck. Never even unwire the drain plug,
until annual time.

It will certainly work and makes making a good seal between rad & diffuser
easier BUT,   I'm thinking that oil changes would be a problem (not to
mention messy) unless you have enough hose length to eliminate having to
disconnect everything when dropping the cowl.  Do you have enough access
room to drain oil without dropping  lower cowl?

I do put a high priority on making almost everything FWF in an alternative
engine installation easy to inspect.   With a unique installation you never
know where the trouble spots might be.
