What 180 stat do you guys recomend for the 3.7L
Also what parts do i need to run the flex-a-lite fan correctly and safely.
Does it make a big diffrance? Do you gain alot of WHP? Do I need one to run the other? If not which one do you recommend will give me the most WHP/WTQ??

The stock fan is actually a clutch fan. So it is driven by a belt, robbing the engine of power.
The electric fan frees up that power.
If you check on summit racing, they have electric fan install kits. or you can just buy the black magic fan and kit...
If the stat for the 3.7 is the same as the 4.7, then you can get it at napa... but I am not too sure on that part of it.

you will use the same belt. it just won't turn the fan as you will remove this from the engine, I would go with the " black magic fan and kit..." like eric suggests, as I hear its a good unit for this appication.(though you don't have to) you will need some skills as to removing the stock fan and cover and then installing the new one. you will have to build brackets or fashion somthing to hold the new fan in place. as the truck does not already have anything in place for doing this.
search the forum as there is quite a bit of information on installing this as well as I believe pics of a couple are kicking around here somewhere.
Sorry can't help you with the 180therm as I don't know that area.
Hope this helps a bit.
