I am putting my Honda EU2000i in an aluminum truck type tool box on the rear of my Toyota. I would like to be able to run it with the box closed. I have most of it figured out, wiring, exhaust and such. But am not sure of what to do for fan for drawing heat from box. I have done several search's and not finding what I am looking for online.

What I would like to do is use 3 120mm computer/case fans that are capable of moving 70 CFM each for a total of 210 CFM. Bad/good idea?

Most of what I see are using electric automotive radiator fans, which many say they are using a rheostat to run the fan at slower speeds. Those fans to me seem capable of moving waaaay too much air for this purpose unless governed down. Just trying to remove heat from box, not freeze it.

Any thoughts, ideas, links, input, wisdom, criticism or wisecracks greatly appreciated.

No such thing as moving way to much air, you either have enough or not enough with not enough having severe concequnces. I don't think computer fans would move near enough air.

Someone on the forum with the math skills could probably figure how many btu's of heat is generated by burning X amount of fuel per hour and how much air it would take to remove X amount of heat.
