You're right, MH can get really hot and that 40cm free space might not be enough space. Might cause the glass to fracture. Hmm... Or you can place a table fan to blow across the top glass and the MH to remove the heat from the lighting? I'm just worried that the distance between the lighting from the plants is a little too far if you use T5. Maybe place more than 4 T5, but I think you'll have to test it through trial and error.
