Push-pull is stolen from computers I believe, which run WAY hotter per unit area than an amp. Plus, computers are leaky bastards and a very small area needs to be cooled specifically in order to get an efficient cooling.
The only reason to push pull is to make sure all air comes in from one specific place and comes out another specific place. If you're just carving holes in MDF/plexi covers, you might as well just put 2x exhaust fans and let the lion's share of the air come in through the gaping hole with no fan.
Oh, push/pull also TECHNICALLY allows for the air to be forced through a more restrictive medium (say, through some matted polyfill instead of open air). But, that doesn't apply because you don't pack stuff around an amp you are trying to cool.

if in your car your push fan looks like your pull fan but can not keep up to the pull fan your fans work harder then they need too

Uhm, clean air gets in my home by bernoulli's principles (we don't have one of those neato exchangers); air whizzing by an intake pulls new air in just like a carb pulls gas into the engine.
Cannot keep up? I am sorry but I don't see what that is in reference to.
