Depends on your mechanical skills.
Basically your pulling off the clutch fan, mounting the electrics, and then wiring them in. How long will that take you?
Altough before you buy that set-up, do a websearch for Taurus fans.

Taurus fans are inexpensive, even the GM 3.8L dual fans can be had for less than $50 at your local wrecking/auto salvage yard. The GM 3.8L fans are identical in function as the LS1/LT1 fans from Camaros, if not the same fans...a buddy of mine got both sets from ebay and we can't tell which is which in CFM and looks. But the LT1 fans have small rectangles where flaps are for highspeed pass through...

Hey, thats great info.
I am kind of a purist at heart. In that I like to install GM parts into my GM vehicles. Anytime I can use a GM version over a Ford version I am all for it. You got any more info on those GM 3.8L fans? Donor vehicles? Specific years? That type of stuff?

Yea hanr any W-car would have these....Impala,lumina,monte carlo,grand-prix,regal from 1988-current. And IIRC the 2000 and newer POLICE PACKAGE Impala has a HEAVY-DUTY version of this fan set-up.

Sweet.
That's awesome info.
Are they two speeds fans as well?
