mini air pump

On August 27th, 2009 Hal (not verified) says:

I'm looking for mini air pump to pump cold air from a reservoir, through insulated tubing to a motorcycle helmet. I have designed a cooling system for motorcycle riders in hot climates and I need a small durable air pump. The pump will sit inside the cold air reservoir and and must be no larger than 4 inches long, 3 inches wide and 2 inches in depth. The pump power will be 12VDC.
Your thoughts are solicited.

Thanks
