lol.. GJ 
where did you get those bracket parts, especially the long arm? was it for something else? is that just a heatsink under the fan?
your diy fan must be suspended without even touching it.
I did a diy effort on my 8800gtx recently, tying a quiet 80mm case fan under the bottom of the gtx fan, to help bring in cool air, I tied it on using the black coated wires you get that tie cables and bags together, works fine except I could only get the fan over half the gtx fan because of my x-fi in the way.. at least the other half of the case fan is blowing onto the components at the end of the gtx
it has made a bit of a difference I think, but I might remove it again to double check the difference.

hehe, cheers
the long arm is part of my heatsink's mounting kit (Thermaltake Big Typhoon) and the right-angle bit is from a HDD mounting kit
and yes, its the stock heatsink underneat the fandone something similar to cool my ram and NB as well, reduced the temp by 8C compare to passive
the big heatsink on the 8800GTS is Accelero S1 with 120mm Yateloon ziptied onto it
