I am not sure which area this should be posted in, so i will put it here for all to see. Who here has replaced the standard engine driven cooling fan with an electric fan on their F150? I have to believe there is some power to be freed up by doing this. Is there a kit that someone makes, or do you just order a big freakin fan and a thermostat relay to turn it on and off? Any help? Thanks guys...

 

try calling Troyer performance he is a vendor here. A lot of people including myself have ordered from him in the past and will take the time to help you out. You need to call him for the best results.

 

Thanks! Wasn't quite sure where to start...

 

Hey Uncle Jesse,
Welcome to the forum. It don't matter where you post, we'll find it!
In my opinion, an e-fan would be probably 4th or 5th on my list of power-seeking mods. First would definitely be a tuner. The off-the-shelf units like the Predator or Superchips will run about $400 and give you the biggest bang for the buck of any modification. Mike Troyer can program a custom tune for you for a bit more if you need a more aggressive tune.

Next would be your intake and exhaust. now that you have the computer tuned to handle more fuel, you need better airflow in order to take full advantage of the tuner.

By this time you might be noticing how tall the stock gearing is in most of our trucks. Mine has a 3.31 rear which is great for highway cruising at 80 but about worthless for real world truck use. Going to a 3.73 or 4.10 with posi will make the truck a lot quicker.

If you've done all these mods and are looking for a supercharger/ undersize pulleys/ etc., then an e-fan would be a good next step. By this point you're way past a stock truck and probably know the guys at the local track by first name. It's a never-ending cycle!

 

Thanks! I have an intake already, and am working torwards an exhust now. After that, i will be giving Troyer Perfromance a call for a tuner. I had a 2000 Trans Am with a 6 speed before the truck, and it was modifed. I told myself i would just buy the truck and drive it plain, but that lasted about 2 months.. at the most. Thanks guys...

 

i have duel e fans from troyer performance and love them, call them they will give you the info you need
