Cannot say on that kit, but my Dorman made 2010 Tahoe replacement fans I retrofitted on to my Express van had a motor fail within a year and the bushings in the 2nd motor were not far behind.

Taiwanese aftermarket parts can be iffy-at a local store,i saw a TYC taiwan aftermarket fan where the screws mounting the motors backed out and let the clip on the front of the blades rub a hole in the radiator

Stick with GM-I wouldn't suggest using the Chinese/Taiwan knock-offs. I'd buy used GM before China.

^^^ Used GM is cheap, abundant and pretty darn reliable.
