Removing your smog stuff can lead to problems. In a more practical sense it's not worth the time to take all of it out for power increases or such in my opinion. As for switching to electric fans im always for that but, it also won't realy net you any performance. Mostly if your engine is staying cool with your clutch fan i'd leave it like that because, otherwise you are just waisting money pretty much.

my 86 has all the smog "crap" removed...

no problems yet...but most of it wasn't being used with new intake and carb and no EGR anymore...so it really just freed up alot of space in there and made it look more purrty
