      Wiring fans, ac, and gauges

      Hello everyone! Im new to this site and new to many of the technological advances of the modern day hot rod. The last time I built a car there seemed to be nothing to it. Now, I have ventured off into the land of technology and I am left thinking I have bit off more than I can chew.

      After reading some of the stuff you all have been doing, Im hoping someone can guide this "new guy" down the right path. So here is what I have.

      I have a 72 Chevelle and have installed the following:

      Vintage air unit w/trinary switch
      Duel spal fans
      Dakota Digital gauges
      Dakota Digital PAC 2750 (temp control)

      I have also re-located my optima red top battery to the trunk, which may have not been the best idea... because most every component requiring a circuit breaker indicates I must install the breaker close to the battery. Is this a must?

      I am having a heck of a time trying to figure out the best way to wire up my fans, ac, and temp controller to work as one. Each manufacturer has instructions on how to wire their product, but it does not include information on how to do it with other aftermarket components.

      After looking some of this up on line, I find there are different ways to do it, but not sure which way is best. I don't want to guess at it and burn my car down.



      So my question for this is... What is the best way to wire these components up for them to work properly. I know I will need some relays and circuit breakers for the fans, but I cant make a decision on the relay fan kit I would need, since I am not certain how to wire this up to begin with.

      Any help, or direction on where to get this information would be appreciated.
