I used to use an electric pusher fan to assist the stock (butter paddle) fan in slow traffic, etc.  But I was always concerned that the electric on the front of the radiator was inhibiting air flow at speed - where most of my driving occurred.

When I finally went with an upgraded (tropical in my case) fan I ditched the electric.  Engine is fine even in 100°+ weather.

In my opinion the red (TR7?) fan you show on there is quite adequate.
