    E-fans

    Bought some 07 e-fans for my 04. Is there any problems i am going to run into with dropping in a 34in radiator? Is my 105A alternator ok? Truck idles at 450rpm... know that aint helping alternator output any.

    Yes, I would definitely upgrade alternator to a 130 at least, if not a 160 while

    My V6 Blazer had a 105 stock and it was pretty lame to start (replaced it twice) and got worse when I put a single fan on...put on a 130 and it's good. My Denali has a 145 stock it it just does the job.

    BTW, idle at 450 has got your lifters, power steering, AC, etc. mad at you.

    Guess i will try to find me one off a junkard.

    What does low idle have to do with my lifters?

    Lifters trying to flop over the nose of the lobe is a little rough on them....it's worse on a flat tappet but 450 is too low.
