It looks as though the HDD/floppy cage is lined up with the left edge of the optical-drive cage (?)
Does this give you room in the front right hand side of the case? You could build a sloped shroud and so use a single fan or impeller at the bottom (below the HDD cage, so there'd be more room there).
Also, if the 2-342 doesn't fit (9.5x6.125x2 single pass front outlets) you might try the 2-149 (7.75x6.125x2 single pass front outlets) or the 2-208 (7.75x6.125x2 single pass front+side outlets). A side outlet might be more appropriate for tight quarters like that.
Looks like an interesting challenge - please let us know where you end up putting it.

PS: If you're stuck even with 7.75x6.125 but really want single pass you might try the 2-610 (6.25x5.5x1.34 single pass top+bottom outlets).
