electric fan vs shroud

I have now added an air conditioner to my 292 1965 c20. Which in turn required a beefyer alternator which I also put in. A six blade fan was put in. Now it runs hot. True the afternoon temps around here rarely dip below 105 so that does not help either. Hence the need for an air conditioner. Several folk have recommended taking off the engine mounted fan and putting in an electric fan. Also a shroud has been recommended.
A shroud specifically designed for a straight six chevy of my vintage has been elusive to say the least. My question is can I do both? Should I do both? What shroud should I buy? What fan system. Thanks
