    Finally got around to wiring up my Lincoln Fan

    Wasn't too bad and works like a charm. I chose to keep it simple and just use a switch to turn on/off relay to operate fan. If anyone wants some pics or descriptions let me know.

    Will do Steve, I'll shoot some pics today & post them up later on. BTW, fan is not installed yet, I'm waiting on my 31"x19" Alum Rad.

    Here's a few pics of the important stuff....

    Fan Switch Wiring:


    Relay wiring:


    Relay Specs/Instructions:


    I used 10 gauge wire for the power & ground leads off the fan, 10 Gauge from relay to starter solenoid, and the rest was 14 gauge wiring. The relay was purchased from a car audio shop for ~$18.

    Looks like some heavy duty parts.

    Do you have any pics of the actuall fan and how much radiator core it covers?

    No radiator yet Steve, I ordered a Griffin 31"x19" but I need to go pick it up. I may make the trip next week & then get it installed sometime shortly after. I'll have to make some brackets but for less than ~$40 including the JY fan & relay it beats the heck outta dropping $100 plus.

    I have the Mark VIII fan in my 93. It is already installed. I don't know how to post the pics or I would. It works great and moves some serious air. I had the Sn-95 prior to this and it is no match for the Mark VIII.

    Pic of the old Lincoln/Taurus fan mocked up on the Griffin 31"x19" radiator.

    Trial fitted the rad to the car & absolutely no modifications/hammering will be needed. It fit tight but very nicely in the stock position.

    Will post more pics when I get it all mounted & installed in the car.:yipee: :banana:

    Ok I'm truly intrigued by the fan setup. Since I finished my custom setup I've been seeing higher temps then I would like. I have a dual fan setup and had to replace one with an aftermarket for clearance issues, and it doesn't flow what the stock setup did. Judging by the pic it doesn't look all that deep. Any one have an idea what it flows or have info on dimensions?
