Do mind I added some pictures so you have a better idea, it does need a small cutting on the top. But with a steady hand and a Dremel it is easy peasy Wink


Ohhh, you need to modify the chassis? It would be great if the model somehow screwed into existing holes of Apollo without modifications. :/
This would definitely affect resale value, right?
Most probably, I was not planning to  Grin.
I preferred to cut the chassis, instead of narrowing the funnel in order to keep flow and reduce the risk of noises due to turbulence.
While I don't know about the funnel, I personally just placed a 120mm PC fan simply sitting on top of the miner (without modifications to the hole's size) and it drastically reduced noise and heat.
So, if anyone wants to modify the 3D model, maybe attempt that before cutting your miners. Cheesy
