can i ask why you want to do this?

i have done it and there is no gain what so ever, only thing i realised were that my electronic fans stopped working one day and i overheated, and at the track they dont compare to belt + shroud. half the time its not even spinning anyway, i just hope you have logical reasons to take it out, not to get .25 hp

i nice pair of flexalites work far better than a clutch fan…

after beating the hell out of my fc all weekend on gatineau muntain… and never seeing the temp go above 1/4 hot… i know they work.
