I put one on my '01 Chevy from NAPA last year, so far so good. WARNING: If that is still the factory clutch it will probably be tough to get off. I had to use about a 4' cheater bar and a great big pipe wrench to get mine off. Good luck.

You fold up some cardboard and stick it into the fan blade path and see if you can stop the blade or slow it down. If it slows down or stops it is bad, if not it is still functioning as designed.
