    Fan don't go off

    My fan stays on all the time now its probably the clutch right. Well im not going to try to fix it unless its something stupid or free. So what kind off options do I have for efans witch ones will fit with little or no fabrication? I have a friend at a junk yard out here that will give me a real good deal on whatever. So I would like to go with used if I can. I read about newer trucks having them stock. Can I use one out of a Camaro or firebird?

    Thanks!

    Search for ls1 efans or 05 efans, the 05 and newer trucks have them stock. I went with the truck ones because they just fit perfect, absolutely no fabrication. You'll find enough info on this site alone to be a pro installer.

    You do need to have the HD 34" radiator though for the 05 fans, the benefits of the ls1 fans is that you can fab them easily enough to fit your current rad if its the small one.

    Make sure you are measuring the core and not the whole radiator. It should be 34 inches for the core and like close to 40 inches for the whole thing. Mine is a 28 inch core, and 34 inches all the way across. I have the smaller one.

    You will need a wiring harness and computer reprogramming to make the fans functional.
