BBC radiator fans?

What radiator fans are you using with your BBC. I am using the long water pump for my pulley setup and it isn't leaving much room for elecric fans.

If you don't have the AC condensor, you could put pusher fans on the front of the radiator.

I don't have the AC condensor but from what I have read the pusher fans aren't as efficient as the pullers.

Looks like I will have to lower the bottom rad tray about 1.5 inches so the 31X19 Griffing rad will stand up straight in there. Hopefully that will give me enough room to have some choice in fans.

I was hoping not to have to do that but might be the only way with the lwp.
