hey guys i got a painless wiring thermostat kit for my new SPAL electric fan. i have a holley systemax intake. i dont see a second hole for the thermostat to thread into. any ideas? thanks!
Are you looking for a place to put a new sensor? How about drilling and tapping the top of the thermostat housing? That is where I put the VW switch I used for my Taurus fan. Worked great.
on mine, there is 2 threded holes in the back of the lower intake also with 2 square drive "bolts" plugging them.... why couldnt these be used? its what im planning on using..

Those work okay for a useless gauge or something you dont care about (NOT a fan switch). Coolant flow back there is very limited (it changes due to radiant heating/cooling more than anything else). This means the fan would be slow to turn on and slow to turn off. Not good. I used the driver's side rear port for my stock temp gauge and that worked alright since that gauge is useless anyhow.
Just MHO.
Good luck.
P.S. If you need to, you can remove those plugs with the upper intake in place (in case it saves some work).
oops.. i just noticed what intake he was running..
thanks... i was thinking that, to be honest thats why i posted that. i didnt want to seem like i was hijacking the thread.. i have the water neck with a threaded piece in the other engine i have, so thats what ill use.. thanks.
