Default electric cooling fans with built in shroud

I am looking for a dual electric cooling fan setup for my big block 68. I now have a single 16" electric fan without a shroud. The radiator finned measurments are 22" wide by 18 1/2 " high. the single setup isnt working there is 3 inches on each side of the finned area thats not getting cool because the fan does cover it. Does anyone have any helpful suggestions.
I live in central Florida and it gets real hot down here. My existing fan does come on at 180 degs and goes off at 160 degs. i feel that with a dual setup more of the radiator will get better cooling.

Thanks
Ted

I know it's not exactly the same, but my uncle has a '55 Chevy with a 483 in it. Two 12" electric fans, one that kicks on at 180 and the other kicks on at 190.
