ELectric Fans on a Cummins ?
For $600 or so FLex a lite makes a fan kit for the CUmmins 5.9 Anybody using it? is there a noticable MPG gain running empty? Does it work well enough to cool the truck when loaded?

I'm not necessary planning to do it and my cooling works fine. But I've watched the debate over electric fans evolve over the years and lots of people are doing it on big blocks even though armies of people say it's a horrible idea.
Over on the Cummins Forum it seems to be about performance but here I figure I'd find people who can answer the towing and MPG question.
I have a 5.9 and see no need for changing the cooling fan. Our 01 with 3.55 tows an 11,000# 5er just fine and never get above 205 degrees on a 6% grade in 90+ degree heat.
Spend the $600 on something better.
