looks promising to me: best thermal contact between the can of the motor and the cooling water, and quite small on the outside diameter. Might need the ports shifted to suit the particular application.
The outside of the motor would have to be clean and smooth for the o-rings to seal well (although a wipe of silicone grease would help seal them) and possibly it would be a good idea to run antifreeze / corrosion inhibiter. If the outside of the motor was painted, there would be some advantage to removing the paint before installing the jacket to get the best heat transfer. There is also a possibility that the paint would blister or flake off if permanently surrounded by water and / or antifreeze.

thats a much better option
we already have touch on this type of jacket within this thread on about page 8 ..
