Really? Not necessary? Something likely off??? The assumption you made is that we all drive stock trucks with a few trinkets slapped on them so we can say "custom".
I want to see you install a shroud and clutched fan on this motor! No Room. There is exactly 4.5 inches in front of that serpentine belt at the crank pulley and 3 of that is radiator. This truck has 15,000 miles on it since finished and all of those are in the middle of the Sonoran Desert where there are at least 30 days every year when the temps are over 105. This truck has never overheated. Twin Be Cool Electric fans and a Be Cool Rad rated for 800 horsepower. Does it "need" electric fans? Youbetcherass if you want to run that motor. Is there "something wrong" with this truck? Only if you're the local sheriff and you're trying to catch up to me on these back roads!.
