Nice nice, that engine will be like new when you are done. Love projects on old school cars.
I would definitely go with the gen 3 ls out of the 01. It's solid like a rock, and very very simple to work on, with alot of online support.
Yea I got this inline fuse from summit, 6 gauge and it's huge!! I will just replace my current inline fuse with it which has a 8 or 10 gauge wire.
The fan doesn't sound too loud, again I have the hood off, and no exhaust yet.
Do we know how much cfm the fan is rated at?
The fan is up and running, without the small black/white wire, so I guess it's running at full speed.
What size is the power wire going to the 60amp fuse? On the fan connector, one side of the power wire looks like 6 gauge and the other side 10 gaude.
There is a gap between the fan and radiator due to sizing the shroud to make it fit. Will that affect it much with air lost?
I only have 18" to work with for fan.
How! Just a $100??? You stoll it. I have not seen those in years..will be a nice fun project. Share the link to the build if you document it.
Thank you for the diagram, hard to read some of it, but what am after is clear on it.
With the replay in place in my setup, I am wondering if I still...
Ok, I will source a 60 amp fuse, right now it's on 80 amps for that battery wire. The green/yellow is going through the relay, so should be fine there.
The ls swap is work in progress but close to the end.
Thanks
Totally get it and appreciate the info. I had to make that one mod so it works for my application. I am using the fan on a gm ls 5.3 into a Jeep wrangler..
Do you know what size fuse is between battery and fan wire? And how many amps the fan drows?
I made the green/yellow hot only when pcm sends a signal that the temp has reaches for fan to run. If you make it hot when car starts fan wouldn't run all the time.
I got it to run on/off only when temp reaches the level by connecting the green/yellow wire to to pin 30 on the relay. Fan turns on whn temp is at 95 degrees and off at 80 degrees.
H ow much amps does the dan draws? I have two 40ams(80amps) inline fuses between fan and battery wire. I was...
I removed the relay and added the 12v switch power to the green/yellow, and my pcm fan trigger, and the fan comes on all the time with key on. I am hopping to get it to run when the temp signal is sent over by the pcm
Yes that is ground. The fan does not come on wired as illustrated.
Will try without the relay. Should both the 12v power and the pcm fan trigger wire be connected to the green/yellow wire?
Sorry I may have missed that. So a relay is not needed?
My two wire fan went throw a relay that's why am lost here.
The pcm triggered the fan to come on whn temp reached a certain temp.
Possible to accomplish the same.
Here is a drawing to illustrate my understanding of your instructions...
I have it connected through a relay but fan not coming on. The 2 small wires, green/yellow, black n white are not connected. Do I need the green/yellow wire?

Thanks for the input. What electronics do the green/yellow wire powers? Both of the small wires will not work for my application as I am trying to use this fan on a Gm ls motor. Possible to run it with just the power and ground wires? Would it hurt if the fan always run at full speed?
Hello family,
I have a radiator fan out of a 03 Lincoln ls I want to use for my GM LS vortec 5.3 project. This fan is hydronic and has two sets of wire plugs, not sure if and how I can make it work like my fan which has only a power and ground wires going through a 30amp relay.
Do I need the...
