Abstract
An inletis disposed at a position which is on an upper side relative to an axial flow fanand is opposite to a direction of air flow produced by the rotation of the axial flow fan, whereas an intercooleris disposed at a position which is on a lower side relative to the axial flow fanand is downstream along the direction of air flow produced by the rotation of the axial flow fan, whereby it can be prevented that an air cleanerconstitutes a resistance to an air flow to thereby reduce the volume of air which passes through the intercooler. Consequently, intake air can be sufficiently cooled to thereby increase the output of an engine
