Electric fan conversion question

[n8tyfour]

Hey guys I got an electric fan conversion kit that comes with the screw in temp switch.

Where would you screw the temp switch into?

Thanks!

Use a hose adaptor... that will be the easiest.

Double check your hose size. Also with a single wire sender... the adaptor needs the ground lug. I think you will be 1 1/2 hose. The one I posted is to small if your hose is 1 1/2.

And will need a wire run from the ground lug to the frame or engine block for it’s ground connection.

I think that's why the kit includes the bung type, to ground as well.

What do you guys think about the radiator probe type?

Lot's of people use them. My preference is to have the sensor right in the coolant. I don't like poking around delicate radiator tubes and fins. But that's just me.

That's an excellent point. I just replaced my radiator to a champion and so that's exactly what I'll going to do. Really appreciate the help!
