You don't have to do the electric fans. But it is best. But not easiest.

For me I used 2 universal fans from Pepboys. 14in + 15in If I remember right.

Here is a quote from the FAQ2.
Electric Fans
________________________________________

There is not a direct bolt in kit. The best choices are to Get a dual fan unit from a Ford Contour/Mercury Mystique. or the dual fan from a 98-03 Intrepid. I think you can also use a dual fan unit out of an early/mid 90s Camaro. You may need to make custom mounts. You can also go to most parts stores or www.summitracing.com and buy universal fans, check www.ebay.com too.

Here are a few articles

As for the hose you don't need to cut it. I didn't But go ahead if you would like.

Ya it looks good and it has a good price. Just make sure it isn't to long, take some measurements.
