Re: Electric Fans For 1997 K3500 W/454 Vortec?

Thanks for the common sense info. Had to chuckle at this and couldn't agree more!
"struggle turning a mechanical fan, it is NOT a 454".

On one hand I understand the theory behind removing the mechanical fan for a HP/performance gain, kind of like don't run the A/C!

I also think electric fans would put minimal load on the electrical.

With all that said I do agree that the factory system is pretty proven.
If converting to electric fans will realize negligible performance gains then it is not worth the cost.

I'm sure there will be other ways to gain performance/HP that are more benificial.
