It's a 1990 VW Scirroco radiator if that helps. The hole size is 1/2" ips nom. See 2nd pic with 1/2" PVC nipple threaded in. It would also require an o-ring or gasket to seal. Any idea's or should I head to the junk yard? TIA, Kent

Here's a fan switch from JEGS:

Even though I have fan trigger wires from the ECU (Chevy LS1 fuel-injected conversion), I like the simplicity of this switch-triggered setup that's supplied by Renegade Hybrids.

I have dual Spal fans, and I was a little surprised at the amp draw at startup...spikes at a little over 40 amps (I know this because a 40-amp fuse lasted "a little while"). 60-amp protection, er, currently. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
