probably not going to happen due to the electronically controlled factory clutch fan. I know flex-a-lite has been working on one for the 6.0L but haven't had much success. Also I've heard that the electrics can't product the volume of air that the factory style can.

It can be done as we do have the means to shut off the fan controls and diagnostics, however I would not recommend this for anyone who tows.

Coming up with a replacement for the rated 12,500 CFM of airflow the stocker produces at 3300RPM is literally impossible, as even 2 or 3 electric ones wont keep up.
