I guess the only way to tell would be to do two dyno pulls one with the fan and one without.
Thanks for the info on the fan clutch.
I am thinking no matter what type of mechanical fan you have on this vehicle it still weighs between 7-15 lbs the engine still has to swing fan at any speed even with the fan clutch not engauged. With an electric fan the engine should idle smoother and spool up faster (if you can really spool a 5 cylinder motor). This should free up some torque and hopefully some gas milage. After all none of use are really taking our h3's to the drags.
