the dual electric fan ( from V-6 FORD contour) cools my V-8...so it must be reasonably powerful. I can recommend SPAL brand fans too. The straight blade versions will really move some air but are a little loud. The curved fan blade versions are less powerful but do a good job.

I have a 16" SPAL fan mounted on my brass aftermarket radiator and it works well (kind of loud)...to bad you don't have enough room to mount two of the 16" SPAL fans, because if you did your cooling issues would be over.

I now have an aluminium radiator with the dual ford contur fans....works well. I kept my radiatior mentioned above as a spare in case I need it, It works fine too. I like the idea of having two fans rather than just one.

If you run electric fans you want to have them pull air through the radiator and have the fans cover the maxium area of the rear of the radiator possible and fab up a shroud if you are able to do so.

Take a look at the OEM fans and how they are setup... GM, FORD, Honda, Toytat... You'll notice they have similar setups... Normal dual fans with the mount being a shroud as well.
