Default E Fan Setup's... What are you guys running?

Yes, another thread from 88BlueGT lol.

Anyway, I have a 3.8L Taurus fan. I was going to get a DCC controller but he is shut down for a little while. What are some alternatives and what exactally do I need. I have been looking into a few things but not sure if they were correct... I was looking into Flex-a-lite controllers, painless, etc. Any suggestions. Thanks guys.

I ran the tarus fan but was getting pissed trying to find a huge relay so I got like 5 guage wire and wired it direct to a heavy duty switch from the shop and have had no problems at all just have to remember to turn it off and on!

3.8l Taurus fan, dcc fk35 and it works perfect, I tried the relay and still melted my fuse holder, don't use a blade type fuse holder at all, use a mega fuse or a car stereo fuse.I know where to get the relay for $13 bucks if you need one. Let me know. Use the large guage wire and a good size fuse until you can get the controller.

Here is the info you need. I got the relay holder as well.

9672K36 is the part # you want for 70A continuous duty
$12.40/ea
