There's tons of dead space in the rear of a ghia so a cooler has to be able to fit some where.
With a beetle I plan on putting a cooler/fan in a metal box and ducting the output down the side of the engine. |

You need to get the hot air out of the engine compartment. I've seen many busses running hot with a cooler on the left side, in the engine compartment. Relocate the cooler to under the rear corner or floor, and problem solved.

You must have missed my previous post.

That looks like as good as a design as any I have seen , CSP type IV Store etcetera.
