You might want to check with Keith Wood at corvairspecialties.com He is  
producing and marketing a plastic fan of an improved design; he might also 
have  contacts who could 3D print a plastic fan to your specifications.

Ray,
This might be a good opportunity to  utilize  3D printing to make a 
better designed plastic fan at a  reasonable price.

I  probably  don't need to defend myself, but I was saying that IF the
original   design is "terrible" by modern standards as some have suggested, 
 a
modern  fan design run at a slower speed might save us some  horsepower and
retain  more or less the same cooling efficiency.   This sounds better than
an  electric fan that doesn't cut it to me,  but the price would have to  be
reasonable.  I'd think this would  probably mean a plastic fan,  since I
suspect lightweight alloy would  be expensive to manufacture, but  todays
plastics are far better than  those available in the   60's.
