My truck came with a late model serpentine setup but I swapped a jeep electric cooling fan for cheap. See my build thread for more details.

Re: Pics of your radiator and electric fan set-ups please
Here's my set up in my 67. 4 core brass/copper rad with an electric fan set up from a 2004 maxima, dual fan set up in case I decide to run a/c later. I used an aluminum angle iron to mout the upper part and fastened two "L" brackets on the bottom.
