either way looks like a good piece and I have had great luck with the 6.4 clutch, so thats a bonus. There was a Thread going around a while back about an HD truck bolt on electric clutch, but man they were expensive when i looked it up, I think just the clutch was almost $700, glad to see a cheaper high quality option

that's the hope, is incredible cooling ability and still staying reasonable for the idi masses.

Basically my goal was to give idis the ability to tow with newer trucks, and not overheat doing it. we may not be as fast, but if you and the family can haul your trailer over the pass/grade/hill without overheating and minimal stress, that is a win in my book!

I'm working on putting a 94 factory turbo 7.3 into a 87 chassis with a ZF5. once this is done my 66 f100 body is going on it. The R&D pipe in your one pic is that a intercooler pipe? I have the old IC from my E99 from when I put a BD IC into it. It would be nice to make that work. I wonder if your fan kit will work in this build? TIA

yes 6.4 clutch with a custom adapter, custom wiring harness to control the fan clutch using a motorcraft pigtail, instructions, diagrams, cut out templates, hardware and a pwm controller for the fan clutch complete with coolant temp sensor.

In case anyone is planning on heavy towing and/or would like cooling system piece of mind I have several fans and fan clutch conversion kits in stock and ready to ship, But Shipping times may be inconsistent during the month of june as I will be moving from Oregon to Montana.
Basically if you want them before july order now!

How does it pickup coolant temp?
Could a guy use the place were the “over heat” light is on the outside of the head?

Well I sure liked that 9 blade fan, seems to work really well. Haven’t been having temp issues at all, but would like to have control over the fan clutch, and while it may not be entirely necessary, I am certain it will do more good than harm.

Plus I ordered something else, that will work well with this, in a way.

Installing mine right now. Haven't put it to the test yet, but all the components are quality made and installation is straight forward. Looking forward to using it
I’m sure you’ll like it
I went and pulled about 14,000 pounds with my service truck today, that’s the truck I put the kit on. I also have the upgraded fan.

207 was the highest I saw, it’s 90° here

Probably would have been 230+ before I bet!
