I was changing the belt on my daughters Mustang and noticed the plastic factory fan was cracked everywhere and the clutch fan had lost all it's oil so I get this crazy idea it would be a good time to do a Mark VIII fan upgrade. I head to the pull a part and of course the Mark VIII fans are all gone but I did manage to score a two speed fan from a 96 T bird. They are a bit less cfm but my Mustang is stock so it should do. Now you go into these projects thinking ah maybe an afternoon or 1 day. Nope, takes all dang week sourcing a 70 amp relay, building a panel, wiring up the other relays needed. I made the panel to bolt on next to the battery. Now I just need to make a little aluminum cover to keep the rain off of everything.

One day turns into 4 before you are done.

Nice work on the panel! Some folks can do it in a couple of hours, hot glue and zip ties, done!! Takes time to do it right...
