Default Pusher fan on a Kirkham

I was originally going to tackle the heat problem on my car, #174, with a bigger radiator, but after talking with David, I'm not sure there's anything out there that's a big improvement over the one I have. Ergo, I may take out the little (cute) pusher aux fans in the front and put in a serious pusher fan. I currently have a shrouded puller from Cooling Components (CCI 1770). My car runs about 80-90°C on the freeway, but it's a idle that I get Coronary Artery spasm. Under those slow moving conditions, with the aux fans on, the car runs about 95-100°C. I do like the way the original aux fans look, but they're pretty worthless. Any thoughts? The car is for driving, not show, and not track. Thanx s
