10/2/2010: Electric Fan Installed

The only thing I could salvage from the Spitfire before it went away to Connecticut was the Kenlow electric fan. My neighbor Tim has one on his '68 so I rolled over there to have a look at how it was properly wired. Turned out I needed to install a 40A electrical relay and wire it to the junction block for power when the key is on. I took a few pics of his and picked up the relay at Radio Shack for $10. Wired it up yesterday. The relay allows the fan to only come on when the ignition is turned on. The electric fan will help keep the car cool when stuck in traffic, otherwise at speed it really doesn't help much more than the stock fan.

 Relay wired to the junction block and grounded properly.

Fan wired up and grounded properly as well.
