/\ its front mounted not on the normal side where they usually are on a nova so should it blow cold air through the rad and into the bay.

It should blows into the bay mate the same way the air would flow if you were driving

Even though you can reverse the polarity on the motor so the fan can be blow or suck air you may need to strip it and turn the blades around so it is more effective as they probably have a curve to them and were designed for one way use.

I may be wrong, haven't looked at an RST fan for a while lol.
