Cooling System Conversion NBS 99-2009 or OBS 88-99
I’ve got a 2001 Silverado 1500HD 4WD with the original factory cooling system. I’ve been looking into the electric conversion for the system basically to lose the clutched fan, and hopefully gain a little in terms of efficiency from the LS 6.0L V8. I wanted to check in here on the sub and inquire if anyone out there has taken on this project? How did it go for you? Did you replace the radiator whilst adding in the new fans, or just purchase the fans? Are you satisfied with the change?
Here is an example from a parts seller. Not sure who I’d use for the parts.
