Hi, Denise...

Yes, the 6 bladed plastic fan will work and
even better, replace the stock water pump
pulley with a larger (4.5") Cooper "S"
pulley (MiniMania) which will slow the
velocity of flow just a bit to give the coolant more time in the
radiator exposed
to relative wind for better cooling.

Also, make sure you are running the 
summer 68C thermostadt! And check the
tension on the fan belt...1/2" "depression"
with your thumb on the longest "run".
