Enough Fan for the Light?

Hi All,

I have a giant growroom, and am currently running 2 rows of lights on a 1750 CFM 14" maxfan. The rows are all 1000w HPS, so a total of 8x 1000w HPS lights are being cooled by my 14" maxfan. My question is.....

Am I maxing out? Or could I cool more? The air coming off of the last light in the chain is still pretty cool, and the last 1000w hood is cool as a cucumber, so I feel it is getting ample cooling. Can I go ahead and run a line of 3x 600w's T'd into that 14" fan? So essentially I would end up with 8x 1000watts, plus another run of 3x 600w all piped into that 14". What is that max air temp that should be running over my air cooled lights?
