If you are planing on flying into real cold weather I think you would have to recirculate inside are rather than try and heat cold outside air.
Still could be done with two flapper valves and a fan.

I'm building a cozy MKIV, and I plan to use a heater core, which will run
coolant through it all of the time, and act as secondary cooling. I will
then use a flapper to either dump the output air from the heater core into
the engine compartment, or into the cabin.

Steve, that is exactly my system. It works very well, but Ken is right. On very cold days when I go very high and it's even colder, the engine is running so cool that there isn't much heat. If you live in the Midwest you would probably need the recirculation option.
