    Nice, clean, efficient design. A couple "pancake" style fans would work fine, and wouldn't take much space. You will need someplace to store the plasma and stinger cables for your multi-process machine, and don't forget the foot pedal.

    looks good
    a simple 110 muffin fan would be a nice addition

    Where does the tank sit if the PP256 goes in the middle? Looks good, but I like anything with big tires on the back.

    looks to me that the tank is under the motor and pump and heater core

    ok I have some experience in this dept ( I have built a lot of water cooled computers ) weld some tabs along the top edge of your tank top then if possible with different fittings rotate the heat exchanger ( radiator ) 90 deg to the right side of the cart looking at it from the front. So now the radiator is facing the side. Tig together an enclosure that covers the whole works that will fit over and attach to the tabs you welded to the perimeter of your tank top. the enclosure should now have an opening in the right side the size of the radiator ( maybe put some sort of weather stripping on the edge of the radiator so air wont leak by. Now the front of the enclosure you should make to holes for your feed and return and use appropriate hardware to attach the feed and return to the enclosure to support them and move the psi gauge out bit so you can see it . wither through a hold in the enclosure or outside all together. now depending on weather you running your dayton pump on 220 or 120 you can install a low profile intake fan in the inside over the motor blowing down into the enclosure over the motor and out through the radiator. the enclosure will be positive pressurized from the intake fan and will naturally find the exit through the radiator provided you have sealed the rest of the enclosure off properly.

    @ 220v you could use 1 or 2 of these http://www.cableclub.com/220v-120mm-...0e1792a3ce7710

    @ 120 use the bottom one one this page 1 or 2 of them, good trade off on cfm vs db. the 220v fans are loud http://www.minute-man.com/acatalog/120V_AC_Fans.html

    I hope this crappy drawing kinda gives yo the idea I am talking about?
