Dual elect fans on the cheap!
I just installed a Painless relay/ thermo kit on my 69. I am running a pair of 14" Flex a lite elect fans.....one from the kids totalled ranger, & 1 new fan. I have a buck 50 in the complete "mess".....90 on 1 new fan, & 60 on the Painless wiring. The fans shroud was built from a steel shelf, & bolts to the stock mounts(no bolts or screws to the rad tin). it was a goof off day, with lots of beer, so i havent had the old chev out on the street, to test her out .....but she idled @ 185 - 190 for an hour & a 1/2! that auto meter guage is screwed into the Dr side head, & the sensor is in the intake. Just for info, the temp runs a little hotter @ the head vs the intake manifold......its not a bunch tho, I have a 185 in , 170 out sensor kicking @ about 190 in, & 175 out crazyL
