    Do you remember what model fan you purchased, what was the CFM? Since you didn't have to use a different relay or fuse?

    Model va10-ap50/c-61a ……. It’s a 13 amp model. My cars electrical is wired to work up to 15 amps for the cooling fan so it works perfectly. I got it from summit racing. You can check all the specs on spal’s website. Thanks for watching and please like and subscribe.

    Is there any way I can use the same fan for the skunk 2 radiator? Is it maybe a standard size in most cases?

    I purchased a standard size fan from Spal, you should be able to do the same with a stock radiator or an aftermarket radiator. Just look to see what the size of the fan is before you purchase anything and measure accordingly. Thanks for watching and please like and subscribe. 👍👍👍

    My catch can hardly ever smokes. I do notice it smoking when the car is on the Dyno getting revved high. In your case I would recommend a compression test to see the health of your motor. Thanks for watching and please like the and subscribe.

    So weird question, what do you do with the excess coolant in the funnel if the radiator is full?

  • @93dajjdg

    @93dajjdg

    The coolant burp kit comes with a plug that has a long handle so you can reach the hole inside the funnel without burning your fingers. So you plug the funnel and pull the funnel and adapter off and install the radiator cap. You always spill a little coolant when removing the plugged funnel but it isn’t much.

    Hello and thanks for watching, it sounds like you may have purchased a Spal fan that runs at a high amperage. I bought a specific model that runs at a low amperage so I wouldn’t have to run a relay. I was able to install my Spal fan directly to the wire harness that the car came with and haven’t had a issue. Unfortunately I can’t give you any advice since I didn’t install a relay and or a temp sensor. Again thanks for watching and please like and subscribe.
