72blu, if you have not, please post a link to your Contour fan setup and wiring? Does it have its own temp switch?

Rockauto has 4 NEW aftermarket units between $103 and $126, plus shipping.

I just measured my new aluminum radiator for my LRT and it is 17.25 high by 25 wide just at the core so a Contour fan will fit fine. A little bit of weatherstriping and POOF. One is on order for me.

Wiring is never an issue for me, 42 years as a Sparkie.

My original install is here

My "new" '74 Duster- or why I need a project like a hole in the head

I run an autometer temperature sender in addition to the stock sender, the Dakota Digital controller I use is switched off of the autometer sending unit. My Dakota Digital controller was a 2750 that's linked in my original install, although I think they've been replaced with this one now

Because the Ford Contour fans are a dual speed, dual fan arrangement you'll need a second relay
