My 49 Half Ton has been overheating all summer. Have replaced the radiator, water pump and thermostat but have not yet run it yet. Am going with an elec cooling fan but only have room for 12" or smaller

What CFM will I need to keep things down about 185 or so in 95+ summer weather? We are also flushing the block just to be sure all bases are covered.

Just looking at an elec fan online catalog I had no idea they drew so much current ! I may well decide to move the battery up front as well so I can run a larger one..
