With 12 volts connected directly to the blower motor it will run at it fastest rate as long as the ground is good. You'll want a fuse and a toggle switch in-line with the 12 volts, so that you can disable when not in use.

here are a few diagrams for the gbody if you need them:

Take a look at a connection that is on the passenger side close to the front of the engine. If that connection or the wiring has fallen onto the exhaust manifold or headers the red power wires for the fan may be burnt or the connection itself may be fried.

As said, look for the big red burnt wire.

I've actually seen that connector unconnected on many G-body's over the years. I don't exactly know why.
