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.

How does this look? Do I have the right idea ?
the drawing is not to scale but that's the jist of it.
