I've had a ton of questions about my cooling fan setup. If you google the mark 8 fan you can find a ton of info. These can be found in several lincoln mark 8s with the 32 valve engine. The trouble is that some are two speed and some are single speed and controlled by the ecm as needed(variable). They are sometimes hard to find and require a huge amp draw to run. The one I have is actually out of a tbird/ cougar with the 4.6 engine. They are all two speed with a slightly smaller motor. It pulls less amps this way so wiring it will be easier than the true lincoln fan. Many many tauruses also have powerful two speed fans and are super easy to find at the pull apart. The two speed fans have three wires instead of the normal two. Also...in my research for a heavy duty cheap relay setup I have found several of the 90's model volvos have a two speed fan as well...and they have a trick one piece fan relay designed to run a two speed fan. I got three of these at the salvage for $4 a piece. It's a good possibility that the volvo fan is better than most aftermarket fans. Factory stuff is just built better. I'm also looking into using a dual temp fan switch from BMW to control the relay that controls the fan. Still sorting this out but I'll post more later.
