Electric Cooling Fan?
Anyone run a electric fan instead of the engine powered fan on our trucks? I am asking cause IDK about if I will have room between the engine and radiator for the fan. Just trying to get a idea. And I like the idea of a electric fan with a manual override switch. Thanks guys much appreciated.

I am just thinking about it cause of a issue with room in the engine compartmentthat may or may not arise. I may do it anyway.

I've heard of guys running without a fan in the winter without problems.
Are you planning a intercooler? If not you could put the electric fan on the outside of the radiator. If you are going to run an intercooler though, you could get one of the slim electric fans.

Actually you may laugh at them but it does work. How I know is I do pay a little attention to the Japanese car scene and HKS there R33 Drag car has a Nitrous bar in front of its intercooler to help cool the charge down, and yeah I know you can get a kit from DEI that attaches to your Intercooler to cool it down. And I am seriouslt thinking about going out on a limb and seeing if it would help any.... But problem is it has to be a good fogger bar not some cheap *** setup.
