Default RE-Thinking rad/fan setup

HI
Maybe a little advise from some seasoned WC peeps will help me in the new project .

I have a 75 caprice HC with a 9 5/16" high X 6 1/2" wide fin area.
My initial thoughts were to mount 2 120mm front and 2 120mm rear with shrouds both sides in a push pull setup.Then it dawned on me that , ok!! lots of CFM`s .,lots of heat generated into case,maybe not such a good idea.Even if there will be a rear 92mm and top 120 mmm exhaust fan.so then a couple of thoughts came to mind and this is what i`m having trouble deciding on.

1: keep the idea of the 4 120mm and duct the heat out the bottom also maybe drop the 120mm and go 92mm keeping the same duct.

2: only duct the bottom fan in the group and leave the top fan to blow into the case.

3: do I really need the total of 4 fans at all and just go for 2 ducted out the bottom . with a fan mounted in side to aid heat dispertion inside the case.

Any help would be appreciated .
