**White5.0** · 12-31-2008, 12:24 AM

ok im looking at options for wiring my taurus fan in my foxbody...

what are some relays that you guys would suggest for the taurus fan? how many amps should it be rated at?

anybody know of any kits where the thermostat to control the fan is located on the radiator, like a probe that you put through it? i really dont want to drill/tap my tstat housing or lower intake...

yeah ed i was looking at that after u told me but i was wondering if there are any that have the sensor on the radiator so i dont have to drill/tap my tstat housing?

I personally think the surface mounted sensors are junk. There are T-stat housings that are already tapped if you don't want to go through the trouble of tapping your's.
