Here's a link to a write up I did on the Motorcraft efans. Perhaps it will be of some help. Troyer has a great kit btw and it uses probes that stick into the radiator. The setup I used is a little different placing a temp probe in the actual radiator hose via and adapter. http://www.f150online.com/forums/oth...-pics-vid.html

They usually have their own thermostat. Either a wet (like what Blown Ford has) or a dry probe (the troyer e-fan kit).

The troyer kit is a true redundant system. Each fan has its own thermostat and it's own controller I believe so if one fan were to fail for any reason, it would have no effect on the other fan, and it would continue to function.
