E fans vs TBSS Intake

[mpope2]

Good evening everyone. I’d like to hear everyone’s input as to which mod is the best bang for the buck based on experience. I’m considering either an e fan swap (05-06 truck fans) or a TBSS intake swap on my Sierra. My truck is a 2000 Sierra with a LQ9 6.0 swap. It’s stock 317 head/cam motor with stock injectors. The truck is catless with dumped 40 series and stock air box. Thanks in advance for the input and suggestions.

Well, first thing is what do you want out of the truck? Just a few more mpg? A little more power? Better torque for towing?

For the simple fact of how much room e fans clear up and how much easier maintenance is I say E fans.

Better yet, how much better the A/C works at low speed and idle. Then there's the reduced load on the water pump bearings.

Preach it!

Honestly the added Ac efficiency at idle had me leaning that way already. The added space under the hood as others mentioned would be nice too.
