Single fan, probably controlled in the computer only.

Actually, I know it was controlled by the computer because I had one.

When I got a hypertech chip, the fan on temp changed. So yeah.

That's what's up. Wink

Just install a manual fan switch. fairly easy and much cheaper. I've got one on my 85 LB9.

Thanks!

This guy on Epay does a custom chip for 90 bucks, is that reasonable?

It's of personal experiance and documentation.... that you cannot properly create a chip without having the car present to do so.

You can get a calibration that gets the car to run and function, but not at an efficient level.
