You'll only need ONE 8" fan for that setup - placed at the Beginning of the chain pushing the air (That way if you have any leaks in the system - you wont be sucking dirty air to your exhaust

Also - why not butt the rooms right up next to each other and use ONE A/C ? Vent air using a cheap blower into/out of each room to exchange air !.

I actually do BOTH of these tricks in my Mother/Cloning/Veg rooms.

One 8" fan to push the air through almost 25 feet of 8" ducting with 4 reflectors connected?Have you lost your mind? lol one 8" wont scrape the surface.

And how do you butt 2 grow tents up to eachother (with them both sealed) and use one portable a/c to cool both? pretty much impossible well unless... your god?

Thats exactly what I'm gonna do Tamarang420, thats why I didnt understand what that guy was saying about using 1 A/C unit to cool both (seperate) grow rooms.

Each tent (one for veg, one for flower) measures 7'9"x7'9"x6'7".

I cool 8 1000 watters with One 8 " 733 CFM fan no problem.

All you have to do to cool both tents is to put 2 - 6" ducts between the two tents - with a blower going in each direction to exchange air between the 2.
I have 3 rooms cooled this way with only ONE A/C in one room. This allows me to share C02 between the rooms as well. I'll put up some pics in a bit.

Yea, let me see your setup. I know your not lying or anything but i just dont quite understand your lay-out design. If you cant post pictures or draw it up in MS Paint using my equipment so I can see how I'd do it.

Buying one more 8" fan isnt a big deal, I already have one. But if there is an easier way, then why not! :-)

I to would like to see how this is laid out. When you say that you have 6" duct between the two with a blower. Your just talking about a cheap axial inline fan correct?

How are you preventing light from the veg area leaking into the flower area? Curved ducts? How long are these ducts?
