HC mounting is a PITA.... but I have an idea for you.

Using any of your PCI slots? Didn't think so. Take out all of the PCI covers, mount a 12cm fan there in exhaust configuration, mount the HC directly behind the 3.5 inch drive bays (might be a tight fit with the GPU), and make some sort of shroud to connect the two. This way your rad will be sucking in cool air from the front of the case... hell the twin 8cms might even help it... and it will be exhausted out the back.

Just an idea. I've got others if you need them.
