    Do you by chance have a photo? Would be interested in seeing it.

    No, sorry. I only have a picture of the outside of the Autocar. The one here in NH made a frame out of aluminum. Just a square then a center piece and the 4 fans attached. That frame is attached to the existing radiator housing. It's very very simple. I'm no gear head and can do it.

    Your existing fan is controlled by an air switch on the firewall. Just take the wire off and that's the power to the electric fans. When the temp goes up it turns on. When the AC needs it it turns on and the dash switch also turns them on. Very simple. Tons of spare room now also.

    Even w/o doing that a thermostat controller to automatically switch them off/on is a simple thing. I'd imagine it saves a little weight also. And if you guys don't know the effects of weight that rotates with the engine go rev a ls2 vette or gto then go rev a 6.0 chevy truck. The truck has a cast block and heavier internals.
