The core looks like this oneFord Truck Heater Core
I built a fan adapter to go from the 120mm square fan to the 6 inch square core. The adapter is attached to the fan with a sqare bracket I found at HSC. The fan is apx. 1 inch from the core. The adapter is sealed with metal duct tape. And the adapter is sealed to the core with 1/4" foam tape, the type used on windows with 'stickum' on one side. Now that I have lowered the fan speed and the temp. stayed the same I concluded that this is all the better this setup can get. At least it is much quieter than the 6800 RPM screamer of a fan that was on the WBK38.
I may get a Aqua stealth cube later, after I figure how to pull air through it instead of blowing air on it. Eithor way it will involve spacing the fan 1 inch from the core.
Thanks for all you guy's input.
