I just wrapped up a DC Controller / Mark VIII install on my 72 Bird.
I love the unit already...........Now i can actually hear whats going on in my engine , Instead of the loud WHHHOOOOSSSHHHH i was getting from the flex a lite fan. With the fan operating @ slower speeds you cant even hear it.
I like the look of the low prolile fan / shroud , Now that the stock HUGE shroud is gone ... :)
I have not drove the car , but the unit works flawlessly idling in the garage for a 1/2 hour as i messed with a few things. :cool:
I have only 2 MINOR complaints of the DC Controller kit. I wish they gave you 2-3 feet extra on the Power and ground wires. I had to purchase extra wire to re-route the wire where i wanted them. Granted , I did not try to call and get more wire, so ....No big deal .
And , One minor detail, I ordered the suppressor to intall the unit when batteries are in the trunk, the instructions specified on the power connection install but not on the ground connection. Once again ...No big Deal !
Great product, great service !!
I cut off the oem mounting tabs on the ele fan , Fabbed up some cheap brackets for the top and bottom.
This install was part of a small project to install my 72 formula hood- including a quick spray of engine paint, Tomahawk intake install, and minor engine bay detail / clean up.
Its coming along nicely, i have a few more things to wrap up before im ready to bolt on / align the hood . And try to figure out how big of a airfilter i can fit.
