Default My custom fan

Hi Guy's
I thought I would post some picture's of my home make Dual Fan for Modified Motor's I Built.Because I race modified and wanted to keep me motor nice and cool. I set this up for my Orion 8 turn single.
First i bought 2 x 3 racing heat sink's, I decided to run 2 x MR fan's.
I cut one of the blue extention's in half that allow's you to have the fan over the end bell of the motor. I then bent it so i could have the second fan blowing directly onto the endbell.To get a nice clean bend I used a large drill bit and bent the end if the fan extention over it.I have both fan's blowing onto the endbell. I added a few Tamiya anodized spacer's and presto.
after a 5 minute with the old fan the lowest temp I could get was 66.9 degree's
with the new fan it after 5 minute's was 52.8 degree's.

What do you think of it.
Thanks
Addam smith
