'Idea' - High Flow Cool Air System
ok here's my cool air flow system theorem
I planned on molding a working roof scoop on top of my car
then buying the smallest labtop fan that exists and mount it under the roof scoop blowing cool air on the engine
keeping your engine cool but will require a higher voltage mod or
its own battery sadly 
any comments or suggestions feel free
i gots tons of crazy ideas....this is just one

ive been thinking about that too but i was gonna use the front grilles instead. or put some slots in my hood and use one of the fans that go into a PCI space. (not actually plugs into the motherboard just to the power supply.)

sorry Bleek i dont have any info other than it was at Best Buy. but now that i think of it, it was too big to fit under the hood too. it might fit under the "cab" with a roof scoop and have it blow air over the motor sorry. or just do the roof scoop but without the fan. put the scoop on and mold an air canal that goes over the heat sink and put an exhaust port where the liscence plate goes.
EDIT: ohh i found some LED fans. what about them? oh yea found the fan too Antec Blower Fan and it def. wont fit. 4.5" x 3.6" x 0.85" little too big?

i have couple of fans that are about 2" and 3 1/4" . there 12v and can run off of 18v the 2" will work. it equates to 50mm. 80mm is 15mm to big. but either way the light kit will probably need to be removed.

you'd either need a nitro engine running a water pump or have it pluged into the wall while driving it. or ive heard about a mat that charges cell phones without contacts. buy a lot of those to make a place to drive and you could have the electric pump running.

Bleek,
I have sent you an email concerning your signature. Could you please shorten it up a little bit, it's a little too long.
Thank you.

Why don't you use a bit motor and put a propeller on it. Or if you want an even smaller motor..use a digi-Q. You can use the rechargeable batt and charge it every time you run the car or you can use a different source of power...i.e Light kit?
