I forget who, but somebody on the corral has either the mark viii or the ramchargers fan with a 12rib blower setup. Arent the Spals a really thin profile fan? Anyways yeah, all the fans listed above are puller fans
tmoss said:I have the Taurus style. The way I want to run it is to have a normally closed/ normally open (2 contact) relay that will use low speed when the ignition is on and switch to high when that thermostatic switch above changes the realy position for high.
TIMMY2734 said:Hey baskin, your fan cfm's are off. I think that KIM over on the corral tested a bunch of electric fans a while back. The mark viii pulled a bit over 4000 cfms at 14.4v. i forget the rest of teh fans, but i know thats what teh mark viii was
rx7speed said:ok guys just a few questions for you
what alt does the mark VIII come with?
also do you think either one of these fans could be swapped into my rx7?
and how about much would they go for?
baskin said:If one position is low, and the other is high, what position is off? Are you going to try and run 30A current off the ignition circuit or use a separate relay to connect to the battery?
tmoss said:Power for both will come through a relay. With the key on, the fan will run in low and switch to high with the thermostat. Off will be with the ignition key.
rx7speed said:I can find out if you give me some time
cause I might be interested in this swap
only thing I'm worried about is I have a whopping 60a charging system :-(
baskin said:Relays aren't available in on-off-on a spdt is either on the first circuit or on the second circuit, there is no off. So if you connect this to the battery, again, there is no off. You either have to run a second relay to switch the battery power in or run it straight off the ignition. I don't think I'd run 30A through the ignition circuit.
