    Default HC install in roof of LL V1200

    I am at a crossroads and need some guidance. Have a dual HC I want to put in the roof of the case. Thing is I am going to have to cut these due to the width of the HC.(see pic) It will not go between. Like a big dummy, I have my case completely dissasembled and in the process of painting the interior pcs, these 2 pcs I have to cut of course are not painted yet. I dont want to put it back together in order to measure for the cuts if I can help it. I know this has been done but cant find a worklog. I should also add, fans, homemade shroud and rad are all staying interior. Anyone seen a worklog for this?? and also, this is photo is not my rig, just used it for illustration.

    Possibly This? First computer related thing google spat out for Dual HC.

    Doesn't make much sense: should fit no problem...

    Heater cores for cars are make/model specific and you didn't give us any dimensions.

    I think you're best solution is to partialy (temporarlily) assemble the case. Use machine screws instead of rivets to hold it together. Then measure and size it yourself. You'd get a much better answer than having a bunch of remote people trying to eye-ball it based on pics.

    Good luck.
