Ok, back to the Electric Fans

There are fans for both applications ,push or pull. I have seen both inside and outside mounted. Only issue I can see with outside mounting is possible damamge from road debris,such as a bird or such getting caught in it .

Would a aluminum billet grille help kinda solve this problem you think?

Im sure it would ,as long as it doesnt have wide gaps for objects to pass thru.

the bottom one. I'm pretty sure they'd withstand a bird or something bigger hitting it. |

That should work .Just make sure you get the rite fans and you should be hooked up.

sounds like a stan. but the only problem I might have is the oil cooler would possibly get in the way. think I could reroute it to the inside and put a fan over it or just wing it and leave it?

Only problem is, if you put it on the outside, you're pulling through the AC condensor first. Put em on the inside and have em pulling in not out. It's the way they are supposed to be. If not, you'd be pulling block heat which contradicts what you set out to do.

Not really . If you use a fan that pushes air it will work from the outside. A fan that pulls air works from the inside.

No flaw. If you have the fans blowing air into the radiator towards the engine bay it is flowing the same way as the stock fan. There are fans that can be wired to spin either direction there in blowing air into the radiator or sucking air through the radiator as the stock fan does. On another note how many birds do you guys chase down with your vehicle? All my years of trying to hit doves I have only hit two birds.

I have yet to see a car with fans on the outside and I've seen em run in the 3's to the 8's. There is a likely possibility, without extreme modification, that you won't be able to run em on the outside. Extreme modification may also entail weakening of your truck's required structure.

fan
The reason you would want an inside fan is because if you put it in front it will be blocking the natural air flow when you drive.... if you have a fan that "pulls" from the inside it will compliment the natural air flow while you drive thus cooling more efficiently and effectively..
