Default EF thermo conversion

hey dudes just wondering i have an EA wif an intec 4.0l conversion but the dude who did it left the clutch fan setup instead of using thermos, i wrote off my EF XR6 and bought back the wreak, i have heard of people using EL/AU thermos for the conversion, is there any real reason why i can't use my EF ones, if its possible could some one please shed some light on the subject, speaking of which i also have an EF XR6 nose cone and bonnet n stuff in poly green if anyone is interested im selling the lights front bar and bonnet if wanted for about $900 or so:, also some AUIII 17inch tickfords (common i know) but still suit any of the e-series models awsome, neways cheers guys

The EF fans are two speed I believe, someone else may be able to confirm this.

Ive got EL thermos, I just wired both fans together and the Wolf triggers them at 70deg, easy job and the motor revs up quicker... oh and there's a ИИИИeload of air sucking through the radiator/IC

dont mean to hijack- how do people hook up thermos when you want them to work with aircon? is that what the single speed fan is for and two speed one for the engine?

Easiest way is to get a Davis craig thermo switch, $60, and a relay. Wire it straight to the battery, and the realy to the ignition, Set the thermo switch to turn on at the temp you want
