Installing pusher fan?

Some time back we talked about overheating in parades or long stretches of hot traffic standing still.

I have had the radiator and water pump checked and have flushed the system. My belts are new and properly tensioned. My thermostat is right side up and functioning correctly. Still overheats in those scenarios, sooooooo

Thinking of installing an electric pusher fan. on a switch, with a relay.

Is there a one stop solution here? Inexpensive? What is it?

or

How would you mount it? Any particular brand catch your eye?
What did you do on your car?

Is your answer based on your experience, or are you speculating?

Thanx!

One last question: If caught in such a situation, does it make sense to put the car in neutral and rev it somewhat, or does that just make things worse?
