Read the article a while back, nice idea for a niche application.
For everyday operation wouldn't the first step be to remove all heat sensative equipment from the engine bay, like battery & electronics, then completely seal & insulate the engine bay so the entire engine including coolant is a heat sink. Have a cool air intake, coolant in & out controlled by thermostat & exhaust out.
