This may work in the ceiling, but you may need to cover the underside with a regular ceiling grille. You would get more air movement with a fan. But, even with a fan, you may not get enough ventilation to meet your needs. I have a neighbor who installed garage door vents and an attic fan, but he was very disappointed with the air flow.

You don't need a fire damper in the garage door. You can just cut a hole in the garage door and install a grille.
