If these are working for you, just spend the cash on a custom shroud instead of another set of fans.

nice setup, as far as i know electric fans are electric fans as long as they work lol.. i mean it cools just as good as the clutch fan assembly, gives you more power, better mpg, more resposiveness from the less weight/less rotating mass, i dont see why they didnt do it from the factory, i guess to save a couple bucks huh..

Most e-fans give around 3-5hp and same on tq. Alot of times it's lower than that even on the dyno. Just gets rid of the 4lb weight on your motor but makes a nice SOTP differance. When i did mine dropped me 3tenths in the quarter.
