Bryan,

The problem with the aux coolers is that they have small diameter squirrel cage blowers (3" or 3.5") and to move enough air they
have to spin rapidly creating a lot of noise, I have one in Double Trouble.

I found a unit on eBay that came out of a mid 1960's Ford Mustang which has 5 inch blowers. I have not installed it yet but I did
spin it up and it was MUCH quieter.

Here's a photo showing the blowers:

That squirrel cage is probably a lot quieter than the auxiliary cooler I have in the same spot.
