Hi tomp; If you look at the pictures the spindle motor is pretty much in the open once the shroud comes off. Heat should exit up very easily. Now to swap leads on the fan motor till the air is going up. ;-)
The electronics cabinet already has a built in heat transfer much like you describe. Heat even from the not so modern CPU is so much less that the original boards that it stays pretty cool. I'm still running a 600 MHz Pentium4 with the STG board. Hope things are going well with you.
