Just a thought; why not rotate the whole thing 90 degrees clockwise, vent it through the side of the plane with a reverse NACA duct in the fuselage; or maybe a venturi vent in the cowl?

I do plan to build one that straddles the exhaust pipe, but it will be a real ordeal, and will be in such close contact with the exhaust that I don't give the life expectancy much hope. But that's exactly the kind of stuff I'm saying I plan to do in this effort. Perhaps I should have waited until I was completely done and presented the information, rather than throwing it out in the middle of the effort and giving the impression that I was stumped on how to deal with this.
