You'll need air cooled reflectors (or cooltubes).

air cooled reflectors and you'll be just fine, don't understand the 2 400's in one 2x4 room, one 400 is enough for a room that size but if you can cool it 2 is always better than one. 1 600 would be better imo. How do you have 2 lamps on a light mover in a 4x2 space is my question, where are they moving not much extra space when you only have 4' to deal with, I wouldn't waste my time or money with that. It does sound like you have a very nice setup so far though. Keep us updated and get that pic up.

I don't think one big fan for the lights and scrubber is the best idea IMHO.
My reasoning is as such.. No matter how large a fan you have when pulling through a carbon filter you will greatly reduce the cfm... You are going to need alot of CFM to cool those lights, more than CFM any carbon filter is rated for. And if you pull too quickly through a carbon filter you will not give it enough time to clean the air...
The light ventatlition will not cause that much Static Pressure so you could maybe choose a Fan(s) with high cfm that dont really handel SP that well.
I had the same dilema when planning my cab so I went with two fans.. a componding reason for me was i plan on using CO2 as well.
My build is still in progress but you can see my choice of fans , filter, exhaust and lighting; the link is in my footer. I am by no means an expert but was in that critical planning phase not too long ago so i feel for you., Sounds like you are spending some real money and would hate to see you decide the planning should have been better... My current fear..

Awesome plans man.. But i would change a few things personally..
You have the same space as me pretty much and i am currently building a cab, you can find the link in my sig.
I would split the veg/mother into two by adding a shelf and using flouresents as it will but down heat and give you more sq feet. You dont need 6' height for mothers or veg...
I think a 600 hps would be best over the 2 400s. I would have just one exhaust out of Flower chamber and holes connecting all three sections so the air is drawn from one chamber to the next and ultmately out of the mother chamber..
No plans for a smell reduction?
