[Chevelle-list] Electric Fan Sensor

[Dale]

Check http://cantonracingproducts.com/coolant_acc/coolant_acc.html about
half way down the page, item #80-116.  It's a water neck spacer that fits
between the intake and the water outlet housing.  It has a single half-inch
NPT port and two 3/8-inch NPT ports for temp senders/lines.  Two of the
ports would need to be plugged off and you could use a reducer bushing to
accept your fan temp switch. A little pricy at $55 though.

 

Another (albeit ugly IMO) option is a later model water inlet housing that
is tapped for a sensor.  Not sure what they came on originally but I've seen
them.

Well I installed the alumitech radiator and dual Spal electric fans today.
Everything seems to work correctly.  However, I did run into one small
problem.  The fans and temp gauge will not run off the same sender ... duh!
I thought about just moving the fan sender to the heads, but 66 heads do not
have a sender fitting.  So what are my options?  What have others done?  I
suppose one option would be to put the fans on a manual switch, but that
would be a pain and what if you forget to turn them on.  Thanks.
