You could wire em backwards, BUT the fan blades are pitched for the way they will be running, so you'll have two inefficient fans trying to do a job they weren't made to do.

Hope this helps.

No prob bud

Stock fans are the same way, they blow like hell wired right, but blow crappy wired wrong and get louder than hell too.
