Well when you can, spend that money on the electric pump first, not the aluminum radiator.

It'll cool faster with a fan but it's not a must.

You will need an electric fan if you use an electric WP. I use a Meziere water pump, aluminum radiator and Mark VIII fan and works great, Car cools down in several minutes if I run the pump and fan without motor running.
