I have a single fan on my 85 IROC and I wanna get a fan controller for it but am not sure exactly what i'm looking at on summit. They range anywhere from $30 up to over $200. If anybody could help me with what kinda set-up they have and what i need to make it work right would be awesome thanx

 

Prices vary based on bells and whistles.

I have the $90 Flex-a-lite - it's a nice unit, but a tad pricey. But it is adjustable, starts fan at 65% power so as to not overload the electrical system, then kicks in at 100% a minute later, has provisions for A/C, and provisions for a manual on switch. I like it alot, well worth the $90 to me.

 

http://www.summitracing.com/parts/FLX-31149/ Is this pretty much the same kit you have and if so is everything included that I would need or is there something else i would have to buy as well

 

this is their newest one that doesnt have any problems. i have my third vehicle that it is on with no problems whatsoever. it also comes with provisions for switches that can turn them on 100% or turn them completly off.

 

Yep - that's the one I'm running.

 

and it comes with everything you need?

 

also what temp thermostat are you guys runnin i'm just gonna replace everything that could make this thing over heat right away cause it started over heating at the same time my heater core went

 

The heater core going out would make it overheat - maybe all you need is a new heater core.

180 is about the lowest you can run - anything lower freaks out the computer, and you'll run rich all the time.

Yes, the flex-a-lite kit comes with everything - you don't even use any of the stock stuff except fan and fan wires. It does not come with extra switches, so if you wan tto connect a manual on/off switch you'll have to buy the switch and wiring for that.

 

i'm just gonna bypass the heater core all together don't drive it once it gets cold anyway but thanks a lot for the help i appreciate it

 

I too have a single fan set up in my Camaro. I needed a fan controller so after some reading and asking around I decided to go with this one here from Derale. I just looked for it online and can't find mine, very happy with it so far and I have had it for over a year so far.
