Bill,
In my Race Car I have the fan connedted to a thermostatically controlled
relay that comes on at 204 degrees. But as a backup, I also have it on
a toggle switch so I can override the relay.
On my street Spit I have only a switch. I have rarely had to use the
fan which is mounted in front of the radiator and and only serves as a
backup to the water pump driven fan on the engine.
