    Well Mike, on that note, I think an actual race....I mean a rematch is an order the next time we meet. Next time lets get to the more desserted area I told you about. :D:rlaugh:I won't be worried about "listening to the Chinese turbo sing". You'll be able to able to hear my "belly button car"...

    Fun times!! Well, in my defense, I was just trying to pace you to hear the turbo but when you floored it you pulled me pretty hard and I had to work to reel you in but I ran out of real estate. Good win tho, Mike! :nice::cool: I must say, the Monster is more impressive in person than all the...

    Glad you made it Mike. I'll be looking for you and the Monster. My car won't be going. I'm back to my original issue of the driveshaft not going back in. I just gave up on it. I'm sitting on my creeper next to the car now....dirty from head to toe. I just said "f#@k it!!!" I'm highly p!ssed and...

    Are you staying at one of the casinos in Biloxi? My club members and I are renting an Air BNB in Bay St. Louis.

    I'm not a fan of black wheels. I'm not stuck on chrome like I was in my 20s but I can do without black. I like satin silver or that machined look. :hide:

    Custom cam prices

    But probably almost half of that cost is the over-seas scenic route to your house. Lol

    Right now I'm controlling the fan manually with a toggle switch. So I just grounded that wire. The fan works. :nice:

    @a91what and @wiseguyk if I'm not using a thermostat switch do I just ground that wire? Would that be the wire I have the ecu to activate the fan?

    I think the last one I used was a DCC controller...and it was advertised as a "high amp" controller. Controllers don't matter anymore because my PIMPxs will control the fan, among other things, when I install it. Correction...the last controller I used was a Derale controller not DCC.

    Yeah, I'll see how it does with low speed. But this hot and humid climate here in New Orleans makes me nervous when I drive the car. But looking at the temps you have your fan set to come on and go off has me thinking I should stop being so nervous. I switch my fan on as soon as it gets around 190.

    I already have the Mark VIII fan. I've just been having all kinds of problems with it burning up controllers and relay boards, but I was able to remedy those issues by using larger wire(#10). When I first wired it in I was using #12 wire. It killed 2 fan controllers and melted 1 Leash...

    Awesom!! Thanks! This will be one of the first things I set when I install my PIMPxs. Did you use your factory engine harness or did you get the harness designed for the PIMPxs? I bought the harness for it. I know it has a designated fan relay in the harness so how would accomadate for that?

    Do you have pics of how it's wired? My fan is dual speed but I use it on high only. If you don't have pics can you draw it for me. Now how do I incorperate that into the fan wiring in my new harness that I will be putting on with the PIMP?
