You will have to do something along the lines of the type 3 system 
because it will not be possible to seal off the underside of the 
engine from the top side. The point is that you have to assure that 
only COOL air can be drawn into the engine for cooling. Otherwise 
your new engine will overheat.

You will have to make something appropriate.
