Electric cooling fan

I am going to be getting my 83 Camaro on the road again. I have a Torus fan and three core alum. rad. The Torus fan would keep the BB cool if I ran it on high. The electrical draw is huge. I was hoping by now 7 years later there would be a better alternative. I have to move some air.

I've heard of others using Volvo XC90 fans. At the PRI show this year, I was thoroughly impressed by Delta PAG fans. They move some serious air with less than 25 amp draw.
