NO you need to convert it to upright or add some ducting to allow air flow into the engine cooling system

the flayt engine cooling sucks from the rear and when your driving your car along it creatsa vacuum behind the car there for not allowing the engine to suck the cooling air into the fan area.
I read it on FACEBOOK so it must be true

im getting it for nothin ,but it needs rings ,ide like a porshe shroud setup but there as dear as poison ,i might look at running some ducting from off the rear guards and onto each side of the motor ,that might work ,,,,
