I guess I don't know of a single, successful, full conversion to Electric
fans on a GMC, that is on the road today. (I will post it if there is)

If you read the literature:

Even with extensive mods to the electrical and cooling system, this mod has
not proven to be a cost-effective, or workable modification. It seems the
best work on this is being done by Gene
Dotson, so I guess we will see what comes of his work.

So even if you want to do it, because you can, you are not likely to beat
the OEM , fan clutch configuration. Especially here on the left coast where
there are hills / mountains to climb.

JMHO
