Finished fan install pics.

Hey guys, I just finished my F-Body radiator and LT1 fan installation. Just thought I'd post some pics and see what you guys think.

Heay Lee what do you want for the fans? If not already spoken for, Went to the track today and on the way mine quit working. Still have to trouble shoot but may be in the market.

Since I'm still running the 84 ECM, I built the cicuit from scratch and am currently using a toggle switch to manually control them trough a couple of relays.

If you're not the greatest electrician, then I bet if you call casper's they'd be able to hook you up with a harness to run those fans. Esepcially considering they are OEM GM fans, i don't imagine it'd cost too much to have them make you something. Granted, building it yourself probably wouldnt be too tricky, but if you'd rather have something plug-and-play, i'd reccomend givin' em a call.
