The fans are not factory and are considered a hack.

Are you sure you have an overheating issue? How did you come to this conclusion?
These machines are designed to run for long periods of time in arcades.

Quoted from ArcadeUpkeep:

Is it just me or does the one on the right look an awful lot like the prop on the plane in Tommy?

Now that you mention it.

Quoted from gdonovan:

I think Star Trek did come with a fan but was removed on mine.

I can't find anything in the schematics. I would think it would be shown if it were factory.
I have purchased used machines that have had a 12v computer fan retrofitted inside the bottom of cab.
Pulling air from under cab and blowing it up through head out to the top back vents.
