It really depends on just what your end use is going to be.

Will this be a Impressive Mall Crawler that sees the far ends of the parking lot??

Off road vehicle that could be hours from help ??

These things play an important part in figuring out just which materials to use.

Aluminum radiator in stock position....fan shroud.....centrifugal fan clutch. If you go electric fans then you take your chances. You risk overheating followed by a headgasket job.
