I've been running this combo for about 5 years, with the mech setup, even in 90+ (common down here in Hell with Palm Trees), it would always run cooler when moving, then creep up at lights. Now, it creeps up as I drive, and cools down slightly if I stop for 10 minutes or so. I think that the electric fan shroud is blocking too much of the radiator, and when moving, the fan is doing all the work. As it stands right now, I might as well remove the DCControls controller, since all it does is turn the fan on at around 180 and runs it wide open until I shut the engine down.
When I go back to the mech fan, the only difference between before and now will be the Griffin. I had a Rodney Red in there before.
Dave, I let my website hosting lapse..... I am moving it to my friend's server when I get around to it!
