Default Cooling fan 396

I have a 65 Vette 396 (NOM) with Vintage AC. It presently has an aluminum flex fan, 6 blades (horrible whine). Can I use a 5 bladed clutch fan to cool her down or would you recommend a 7 blade clutch fan? Car runs around 180-195 now, just can't stand the whining noise

The more the blades the better especially for a big block. I have a used 7 blade that will fit the small pattern water pump pulley. Thanks, grant
