Cooling System Complete

After fixing the radiator and re-installing it, I was able to finish out the installation of the electric fan harness and complete the cooling system re-do.

The wiring went in pretty well. I was able to tie into the original fuse box in the car to allow picking up the wiring which was electrified when the key was on and the wiring that was on all the time. I also was able to use some of the original holes in the car to mount the relay. I finished the wiring install by wrapping the harness exactly as the stock harness was wrapped, so the whole setup looks like it belongs there.

 
 
 
I thoroughly tested the system after installation and everything went really well. I installed a 180 degree thermostat and the system performs perfectly. It cycles exactly as expected and the car runs at a perfect temperature all the time. It also handled the 100 plus degree summer in Memphis with no issues.
