Fans inside let air flow through when driving, fans outside tend to block airflow when driving some. You can shroud the bumper to force more air through the radiator when driving. Generally slim fans don't move as much as they sound like they do since the slim blades often spin too fast and just chop up the air instead of moving it, however the stock radiator fan controls have variable speed operation so they'll be running lower speed most of the time. Can you run one pusher and one puller? A puller on the side away from the headers and a pusher on the side with the headers. I bet even a double thick half rad with a push and pull fan would work pretty well, halving the length but doubling the thickness is just as good usually, though you do need more airflow for a thicker core so slim fans may not move air as well as regular shrouded fans.
