You should be able to use the same ones that are available for the dual fan TPI car made by JET & (I think) Hypertech. They are roughly $40 from JEGS, Summit or other places of the sort. They come on at 200° and off at 185° (one of the 2 make an even cooler temp 1 as well)

If $40 is just to outrageous for you try doing a seach for Temp Sensors, some people have found sensors from other GM cars that come on cooler than the OEM 238° ones.

The part number for the 190* cooling fan switch that comes with the ZZ4 Conversion kit is 3053190. It's about $37.
