Default efans not good for trucks? see attatched auction.

I was looking for efans on ebay. I found the auction below. See the part where they say we don't recommend these for trucks. Anyone have any thoughts on this?

Maybe the LT1 fan's don't produce the CFM that the LS1 fans do?

Mine are LT1 fans, and they work just fine. As far as I know, the motors for the fans are the same.
