Right now, for our track cars, the fans are wired to the ECU with one speed, which is fine. However, we still need to figure how to wire the fans, so that the fans will come on when the AC comes on...regardless of coolant temp. The AC will work much better if the fan is on.
We'll post a wiring diagram shortly.

Give it a try and let us know how it works out. We made this for local in-house cars. Of course anyone can build their own if they prefer.

your fab guy cant gas weld aluminum ? i was trying to be polite ,but $250 is outragous for such a simple project ,your post oozes arrogance and let me tell you a custom fan shroud with aftermarket fans is hardly ground breaking work!
