It looks like a car blower, but the voltages seem a bit off...

Another quick question... Why two heater cores instead of one double sized one? BTW, Which ones are those?
It is a car heater-core blower. Cars run at ~13-14V or so, but everything gets rated as "12V".

Those are fairly large heater-cores (22cmx14cm fin area). They don't really come much bigger unless you're talking about truck heater-cores.

I was making up painted radiators and shroud for a while, and had one for myself already, but also just happened to have an extra heater-core sitting around so decided to throw it into the box rather than buy a larger radiator, for which there is a Morris Minor car radiator that measures around 26x26cm in fin area.
