Vance,

A pusher fan is not as efficient as a puller fan.  It is a documented fact.
The pusher fan is approx 80% less efficient than a puller.  This is not
something I am making up.  I have read this several times in different
places.  One such place is here:
http://www.perma-cool.com/faq/efans.htm#installed - you might need to scroll
down that page a little, but it is there.

 	Stan:

	Is the fan reversible? Mount on the front of the radiator as a
pusher. There is no cooling penalty for doing so.
