as much as it's driven, I'd need a...drive through paint booth...wait for it.................................................
got it all wired and tested today...thanks Effie...:Handshake when it kicks the fan on, it's running so slow you can't hear it...then it ramps up to max...SWEET... I will address that little yoke situation tomorrow, then...
That's cool! I have been eyeing up that controller... Does your car have A/C? If so, did you wire up the A/C option on the controller?
got my new radiator installed and filled today... Effie came out to the shop and helped me...program my new controller, it was a snap...:Handshake Sweetheart I set the low side at 175 and the high side at 195. with it idling in the shop it came down from 195 to 168 and leveled off... this is with a 160 T-stat. with A/C on it ran at 173...outside temp 95... I will put this thing in the streets tomorrow and see how it works...
the 160 T-stat was a suggestion from my dyno guy... Spal suggested the low temp be 15-20 above the T-stat opening and high temp be 15-20 above that... my thinking the 200 is with EFI and cats...
Just throwin this out there if anybody searches and finds this thread. The EFI computer i think came with a pin that wasn't wired in for an electric fan that could have been an option (at least the 86 GTs)... Not sure though, mines manual missle switched.. just turn it on when i get it. off when i get out.. I'm a switch guy... even have one for my fuel pump... oh yeah.
did a road test today... outside temp...97... speed between 85-100 MPH... distance 15 miles...interstate... highest temp 190... off the interstate temp 179... 160 T-stat... stock replacement-copper/brass 3 row radiator... single fan and shroud from...Champion Radiator Spal PWM-V3 controller stock GM temp sensor low fan speed (50%) on @ 175... ramps to (100%) high fan speed by 195... ...more testing tomorrow... ......
Im thinkin w/ that kind of cooling performance maybe I shud have got a stock copp/brass rad. U running crossflow rad? I just remembered, I am running a 180 stat. Highest I seen is abt 210 coming to the RU in mid 90' @ abt 70mph U running Tarus single fan or some kind of twin setup?
