Working away at my LS swap and starting to get things together for wiring. Just wanted to share this relay I'm planning on using for my electric Intrepid fans. It's from 1990's Volvo 740, 850 or 950 sedan or wagons. Nice package and waterproof. Figure if it does go bad can always get a replacement at any auto store.

Many of the OEM setups will handle 60+ amos. Relays such as I linked above will handle 40 amps. The intrepid fans will not pull 30 amps unless they are no good.

x2 with they are much easier to diagnose and cheaper to replace.

They'll work. Geesh, 2 of them will probably start the car.
