Tony, based on that preliminary sketch - it appears you have the basics 
there.  The only thing I notice which at this point that I would change  is 
you appear to have the inlet flush against the bottom of the fuselage where 
it will easily ingest the aircraft skin boundary layer.  Most inlets so 
mounted are generally mounted an inch or so away from the fuselage to avoid 
this.

In fact, given the apparently length of your inlet from your sketch , you 
should have little problem with the length of a full up Streamline duct - 
which according to K&W was the best they could find for subsonic flow.
