ok beating a dead horse, but I just got done about a hour ago doing the Ls-1 swap and black bear harness install, What temp are these suppose to turn on at? The gauge is right at around 210 maybe a bit less.

The mounting is not the issue, the gauge will go to 210,drop a position, stay there.

Depends on what they are set to in your tune. Ask your tuner.

Im not sure what else your asking tbh.
Genesis has the 34" all aluminum radiators for $168+tax/s&h. Matched up perfect to Ls1 fans.

Been a little too cold around here to have em kick on by them selves, but if I jump em they work fine, temp around here hasent gotten above 50 degress for the past two weeks.

Suppose to kick on at 204 and off at 199 on low and if AC line pressure is going, kick on a 211 off at 207 I believe for the high setting.

But I'm also thinking of running Engine ice too.

I would just set them to the specs of the '05-up models. Engine ice is kind of expensive... why not just swap out your thermostat for a 180* one? Oh and if you swap thermostats you will probably have to adjust the temps your fans come on again.

I get engine ice from work at a pretty hefty discount plus we always have at least 12 half gallon jugs in stock,drain,flush,fill,done.

Is there a problem with that. Sounds normal to me.
