Suggest that no matter which antenna supplier and configuration you choose, 
you commission a pattern study on the antenna manufacture's test range for 
that antenna at various mounting locations on an exact model of the tower 
structure it will be mounted on.

It may matter little what configuration you choose as long as you are sure 
that it radiates at least your licensed RMS power in the directions of 
interest to you from your tower site.  Mounting can make a big difference in 
doing so.

Paper 6 at http://rfry.org gives some insight into this.
