I think it would have to be a very small fan not to increase front-to-back depth. If it was too small it would not move much air and just add noise to the mix.

Instead, if the rig is in an enclosed area where heat can build up, you might be just as well off installing the fan into the rear or side of the enclosure, itself, to keep air moving across the heat sink.

Happy Trails.

Could a fellow mount SMALL fans off each end of the heat sink in a "push-pull" 
orientation, and thus not increase the front-to-rear dimension? Just a thought.
