Electric fan conversion article....???

Guys, I have some questions about the junkyard fan article. Mr. Langley please explain your electrical math. Why are you installing a large relay and alternator to cover an occurence that lasted "only for milliseconds"? I do not understand why you suggest that people spend hundreds of dollars to upgrade their electric system to install a $30 fan. Rather than spend the money to increase my alternator amps I would spend $100 to buy a Perma-cool fan that works with the alternator that I have. I have installed several cooling fans on my older cars without going to the trouble Mr. Langley did and they have lasted for years without any problems, so I do not see what all the fuss is over 130 amp alternators. Please illuminate me.
