There are no "intake only" or "exhaust only" fans...a fan is a fan. It's how you install them that determines if they're intake or exhaust. On the side of the fan there will be small arrows showing the direction of blade rotation and air flow. Just set up the fans so the front ones blow air into the case and the rear fans blow air out of the case.
