i got mine from ebay for pretty cheap and it was a pusher and a puller. that way i had options for placement. i went with making it a pusher so i would have room to work on the front of my motor and made a shroud so that i didnt loose any air and that every inch of my radiator gets air. not just the circle spot in the middle from the fan.
i used a 16 in spal fan-FREEDOM- is cruisin at 80, windows down and listening to the perfect song-thinking "this is it"

no i dont. but moving the ac stuff forward (im guessing in your case you have it) should not be hard.
OR-
i would remove the AC fan and then mount the spal fan in front of both the AC cooler and the rad, and make a shroud that would cover both. that way you use one fan and get the job done, and still have room in front of your motor to work-FREEDOM- is cruisin at 80, windows down and listening to the perfect song-thinking "this is it"

Looks like they've got the best price on them, too! I'm likely going to go with their 16" low profile push. Before I pull the trigger, is there any reason or definite advantage to going with a pull rather than a push, or vice-versa? To be honest, I'm inclined to go with the push because of it's location, it will hardly be seen.
Also, would it be a good idea to also get the Spal fan shroud gasket:
And I'm thinking the Spal mounting kit as well, looks like a better method than the zip-tie things:

I got something in the works right now. As soon as I get it all working I will post up the details.
The plan is to use a 16in 3600cfm pusher in front of the condenser and a 10in 1200cfm puller, along with a mishimoto rad, and 75degree thermostat. The car should not run hot at all, I hope95 7.1L 16V E36 M3

Puller fans are a much more efficient design, but they are a definite bastard to fit in there.
With a decent radiator and a decent pusher+gasket, you will have plenty of cooling.-Dave
