Default RE: Would this have enough cooling?

A ridge, ramp, or low pressure device needs to be ahead of the hot air exhaust opening to have any effect of draw. If you can ramp some inlet air from the cowl inlets towards the bottom of the head what yu have should do. Barring that, you have a strong chance of being very marginal in hovers, torque rolls, KE spins, tail slides, and tumbles. ll of which are hell on engine cooling.
