      Mark VIII Fan and Custom Controller

      I have been really happy with the installation of my new Lincoln Mark VIII fan.

      The MARK VIII fan and 55GPM Meziere electric water pump work really well. Sitting in traffic in 98degree weather last week... The car ran at 175 to 200 all the time. It runs the same in the morning when it's 68 degrees outside. I am not worried it will overheat at all!

      I have it hooked up with a 75AMP Bosch relay. When the fan kicks on, the charging system gets a shock! The gauge runs up and down a lot.


      I found a new product I'm going to install. I found them by accident. I like getting info from a happy customer, he sent me to this place sells a controller that supposedly works really well on controlling the HUGE Mark VIII fan and its AMP draw:

      It helps ramp the fan motor, rather than SHOCK the charging system. It also helps even out the temperature in the cooling system. Rather than having it HOT.... COLD.... HOT.... Which is not great for the engine. It's more gradual.



      Just sharing.
