I've been down that road experimenting with setups like that. It seems there are a bunch of radiator/fan companies that design there electric fan setups like that and every one I've tried always had an issue passing enough air to control engine temps. What ends up happening when I tried it is eventually the fans just run all the time, even on the highway, because even at speed it's a struggle to get air through the radiator when so much of it is blocked off. I had a big thread about it the last time dad wanted to try it on his GTO and even had Cold Case involved, adding holes and rubber flaps all around the electric fans where I could fit them and it was just never enough to control the issue.
I completely got away from those setups years ago and now only use a good quality radiator with the factory shroud and a clutch fan setup. Now I can't even get the engines hot in the AZ desert heat.
