What are the pros, cons of e-fan conversion on a 2500? Engine temp got up to 220 a few times in the past while carrying my snowplow.
2500 E-Fan?

You fan clutch should have engaged fully at that point.
I would not advise switching over to electric, but perhaps put a 'helper' electric fan in there.
I've not looked on mine to see what kind of room there is in there, but I'd guess you could fit in a nice 18-20" lo profile electric in the factory shroud to pull through a TON more air at lower RPMs.

THere should be plenty of room for Aux fans. I know the CTDs have been adding them to help the AC while idling. While not the same of course but you can't be the first guy with this problem.

My 2012 has a mechanical and electric. Although I think the electric only come on for the a/c. Mine never goes above 212* pushing it as hard I feel comfortable. 75mph up hill towing at 4xxx rpms.
