Big Taurus or Mark VIII fan from the salvage yard.  Cost around 20-35 bucks.  Get a good variable speed fan controller and your all set. 

I usually use DCC fan controller.

I bought mine at autozone. Just got the biggest one that would fit my radiator. It works great and doesn't suck a lot of power, and its slimlined so its not big and ugly and sucking up all of my engine space. Not that it matters if you've ever seen my engine bay:giggle:

I use a Taurus fan. I was going to get a Mark VIII fan, but the Taurus fans are everywhere, at any salvage yard for super cheap and can really keep our cars cool.
