Electric fan/waterpump

Im just curious about the idea of the electric fans and what about the electric water pump? I know a lot of people do the fan conversion. Is it hard to do? Expensive? Does the water pump work any better? Is it worth it?

Thanks for any info.

elec. fan benefits: warms up faster, saves fuel, just a little more power.

elec h2o pump: don't have one.

lots written on elec. fan conversion if you search.

Electric fan for me has been good so far, but I don't do heavy towing. I can see a rise in temp when I'm pulling 6000# of toys, but I don't exceed 205*.

I can't see much gain in an electric water pump, plus I fear they would be unreliable because they are usually for race use only. If OEM put one on a vehicle then I might consider it, but they don't, for good reasons.
