I recommend an electric cooling fan and adjustable thermostatic controller. It saves gas and frees up power vs a clutch-driven fan, and it doesn't cost much more than a replacement fan clutch. Fanless sounds interesting, but you'd have to monitor it diligently, and you can install a more aggressive grille block if you have a fan on standby.
