    Old School Or Electric Fan

    Just a general consensus warmed over 289, No A/C No P/S O.E. radiator that just recently passed the flow test and pressure test. I want to keep the o.e. fan shroud. So was wondering what have you done. Gone electric or kept it stock. How was your cooling? any problems? thanks.

A good...
