Between the two, probably Guenon, as he would be the intellectual poster child for the western caliphate. Evola is too new-age to be taken seriously.

Evola has had a greater impact on real world events, as he explicitly addressed Traditionalism to modern political concerns. He is very widely read in dissident right circles - from the intellectual Greg Johnson types all the way to National Socialist street activists. With the crumbling of liberalism and the paralysis of the revolutionary left, I think that in coming years the dissident right in the West will be more influential that it has been since the end of World War II.

Guénon is widely read by members of virtually every sufi orders in north africa and europe. I can quote at least 5-6 orders whose members I have personally seen recommand Guénon without any disclaimers - Shadiliya, Karkariya, Kacimiya, Qadiriyya, Tijaniyya etc.
