I am looking to add an elec fan and eliminate my belt driven fan on my 4.6. Has anybody had any dealings with doing this? This is what I found on ebay

Let me know what you think?

Don't waste your money on those. They are way under power and lack of efficient design.
Do a search on here you will find a few E-fan conversions. The best E-fan is Motocraft E-fan from a 2010 F-150. and Painless controller.

I did this conversion. Love every minute of driving.

I have the DDC FK 75 controller and it works great and Brian is a great guy to deal with!

Any true benefit to this?

Absolutely. Taking the belt driven fan off reduces stress on the engine (additional horsepower), keeps the engine bay cooler (also cooler A/C), and frees up a bunch of space under the hood.

Plus you can take it a step further like some people and wire in override switches for the fans. They can them turn them on/off whenever they want or just let it be auto on/off.

E-fans will still have a draw on Hp, but minimal since it's using the electrical system instead of the crank to drive the fan. With a clutch fan it will always be drawing resistance while the engine is running. An e-fan will not. My buddy swapped all of his 67 and 68 Camaro's over to e-fans before he passed. You could feel a little difference, but it was only minimal. His engines seemed to spool faster when he floored it, but you have to remember he had the old GM clutch fans. 20+ lbs a piece.
