I saw one a long time ago in pics of a blower setup similar that wasn't actually bolted to the engine. It was in front of the engine at the crank centerline with the blower snout facing the balancer on the crankshaft(direct drive with a coupler). It used a series of 3"-4" diameter piping to direct the flow of air as needed. So anything is possible, its just going to add to the complexity of the fab work required to install it.
