As to wiring e-fans: I've always used a relay to provide power to the fan itself. That way, I can wire it directly to the battery (with an appropriate fuse in-line, of course!) and with large enough wire to handle the current. Make sure the relay you use is rated for at least 50 amps, and I would recommend 8 gauge copper wire, with hi-temp insulation. That way, the control circuits don't have to handle the high currents the fan draws.

Comes with optional 195* sensor along with 180* sensor and fuses are rated at 150A spikes and 100A loads and claims to have sold over 200 with a .5% failure rate. Id like to purchase this or just his fuse setup and get a mark viii fan but how would controlling the fan work because theres only two settings for this setup 180* and 195*
Shop around And the pulleys from a 05-10 mustang 4.6 work on the 5.4. my local spped shop told me they didnt have anything for a f150. Told them to look 4 the stang and taadaaa $175 for the 2 pulley set.
. throw on another 230 for my fan and controller and daddy is a happy man.

Thanks.
LS1 Camaro/Vette electric fans and an autozone fan controller with two relays....
Worked for YEARS this way and I don't have any problems.
Also, there are 5.25", 5.5", and 5.75" factory water pump pulleys that came on our trucks....
