    If you are having a cooling issue , try a fan shroud . They help a lot . If not use an electric fan with a manual switch so you can switch on as needed . I really don't think there is a better fan for it that will fit .
    Just a thought .

    Well you could get those universal chrome ones you can get in any place that sells street rod parts , Summit , Jegs and so on .
    As for a fan i would get a used one from the salvage yard and keep a small 12v battery someplace in the car and just use when needed . Just charge up as needed too .
