                an they fit very close to the rear S/S but the fans still give a good blow in to which will be the down take to the main big 80 mm fan inside the hull an these will all be built in but i must built the rear big funnell first so i can see how much room i have for the fan tunnels intakes Click image for larger version

                    an here the big 12v 80mm fan that should blow coolin air arond the motors in the hull an so there is a circalation of air one of the rear apertrue cutout will not have a top fitted on it the the warm air can be blown out (hopefull ) as this idea work very well on my NIMITZ carrier Click image for larger version
