Well, with how aerodynamically dirty that thing is, you'll need to start from the front and work your way back. Everything will need to be enclosed in a fairing. Avoid any abrupt angle changes. I'd try to tilt the windshield back to reduce the angle there. Once everything in enclosed, add a boat tail to the end. Tuft testing is really going to be your friend on this one.
