Electric fan help
I want to put an electric fan on my truck and I'm not sure what would be better a fan out of a taurus or a set up from a 2010 F150 the only concer I have is will one taurus fan in the stock shroud keep my truck cool enough? the 2010 setups have two fans and no shroud from what I can tell I like the idea of the taurus fan in the existing shroud but I worry that it wont cool enough what are you guys using for electric fans and how do they cool our trucks

Got the fans here http://www.carpartsestore.com/ part number AL3Z-8C607-A. The DC Controller came from http://www.dccontrol.com/fancontrol.htm Keeps me cool and I'm well over 500hp. Getting rid of that shroud is a major plus. Weight and looks. Plus its easier to get at things.

Do you have a pic of your engine compartment Blown?

Cell phone pic but it's something.

One huge advantage I noticed was that my Air Conditioner was ice cold during idle conditions during the hot summers in Texas and Florida. Be absolutely sure to get a good controller for your fan(s). DCController is a great place to get one of these. He has been building controllers for use in Mustang and other high performance conversions for years; they work great in our trucks. |

BF, Just wanted to verify, the part # you list for your e-fan installation is for the 2 fan set for the 2010 trucks? I'm leary of used electrical parts, so I want all new, even though it'll cost more. I searched around and see you used the DCC FK-50 controller, with some kind of "filter".
...also, the fan part# has a new first digit, "A" changed to "B". Bucko, I could not find your install post, but lucky13's post looks like it covers what's needed. |

I have under $150.00 total (used 2 speed Mark VIII fan, and DC Controller). Have had it over a year now, with no issues or failures.
For the record, the electric 2 speed motor used in the Mark VIII e-fan is replaceable. It's a Siemens fan, available at your local parts store. |
