The search function works great...I usually don't bust ***** about folks asking a question that's asked every day, but this topic has been beaten to death.

LS1 and LT1 fans are a direct swap but require that you fab 2 brackets for the top

05+ efans require a 34" radiator and are also a direct swap and look totally stock when done correctly.

You will need to either make or buy a harness for the efan control and have your PCM tuned to turn the fans on. Our sponsors such as Blackbear and Nelson sell plug and play harnesses for about $90 to $100. You'll either need tuning software such as EFILive or HPTuners to tune the PCM to turn the fan on, or you can get a custom tune from one of our sponsors and have them turn the fans on. BlackBear, Wheatley, or Nelson can handle the tuning for you.

Mods, can we please move this thread to the GM Exhaust and Performance section, where the thousands of other efan threads are.

Way to pick on the new guy. He only has 34 posts, so he doesn't post that much.

No offense, but did you just randomly click on links with your eyes closed? I'm just really curious as to how you thought electric fans are an internal engine modification.
