Sounds like a reasonable solution to me. As you say the Super 7 type kit cars have a very small front area to work with.

Since your running an intercooler I assume your supercharged --- I'm not very familiar with the configuration of the kit cars although many years ago I had a friend that had a 1968 Lotus Super 7 so know what sort of lay out your dealing with.

Do you have the Caterham ?

We need a bit more background info to give you any reasonable guesses on the best path to follow. A little bit about the engine and its configuration would help a lot.
