the small hoses running under the plenum, into the throttle bodies, and in the back of the engine would develop pin holes and slow leaks that wouldn't show up unless it got hot enough. They should either be deleted or replaced with reinforced silicone coolant lines. As for what fan to use, an electric fan that would put out the same cooling capacity as the stock mechanical fan is a BEAST and the load it would put on the alternator may shorten the alternator's life. ALSO if you have the fan set to turn on only at a certain temp then before it reaches that temp, it leaves hot air just sitting still in the engine bay which can heat up all the rubber and plastic in there and make things brittle, and possibly even melt. I recommend you look for power elsewhere. The mechanical fan is always moving air through the engine bay which is muy bueno IMO. If the mechanical fan clutch ever fails DON'T replace it with an aftermarket one, they usually stay engaged all the time which wastes power.
