Electric Water Pump

Now I sure with all is this discussed on here that this has been covered before.......but I can't find much.............why can't a electric water pump be put on our trucks.......what are the pros and cons............it seems to me.....it would free up a lot of horses........and help mileage.......anyway how about some comments.

I dont think it would be beneficial on these trucks like a gasser.....I have never heard of someone trying it....our cooling system works so well some are running without a fan......I would not change something that works so well.

There are a couple guys in the 99+ forum running no fan pulling 8-10k regularly with no problems

Elec fans are very efficient if shrouded correctly....the Ford Taurus and Mark VIII fans are a hot commodity because they are 2speed and pull so much CFM(I believe it is 97-98 yrs that have the highest CFM).
