How do you like the elect fan conversion? What parts did you use?

So far so good. I only hear them running while at idle or really low speed, and at night I notice the headlights dim for a split second when they kick on. Of course I really like the extra room under the hood.

Dewitts offers this fan kit, but I thought $425 was a little too spendy. I used this fan and this controller. If I ever get my A/C working again, I'll add another controller, one per fan, in order to have an override.

I made a frame to mount it out of 2"x2" and 1.5"x1.5" aluminum angle, six tee nuts, and a bunch of pop rivets. It mounts similar to the Dewitts kit, through hollow extrusions on top and bottom, though I riveted mine on instead of using sheet metal screws.
