#1 - Fan 1 on/off 184/175 and Fan 2 on/off 194/185 (common settings)
#2 - Stock should be fine
#3 - What BB said
#4 - What Cstick said. Unless you are getting a good deal on some 28.8 injectors.
#5 - The difference in the 98-99 is the placement of the EGR valve on the header. I don't see a difference in price for the different model years, only for the EGR vs. Non-EGR models.
#6 - No kidding.
