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?
Yes. I can almost climb in there with the engine from the lower end. I exaggerate, but the oil drain is within a few inches of the lower cowling air/exhaust exit.
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.
One of the neat aspects of the Delta is the wide, flat layout of the FWF. There's lots of room to get at the engine from the sides.
