The aircon fan is designed to switch on whenever the aircon is switched on - whilst the thermo fans will only switch on when the engine temperature goes above normal. If you delete the aircon fan your aircon will not work properly and probably cut out due to high internal gas pressures as it needs the fan to cool the condenser. You could wire the thermo fans to switch on with the aircon and this would overcome this problem and you could then remove the aircon fan. The Au fans are supposed to be excellent units. Good Luck.

hey bloke i help neilb from this forum put au fans on his vs when we put the v8 in.
the best way it fitted cause it was auto and had auto cooling lines was to fit the fans upside down and it looks good. it didnt take much choping 4 the auto cooling lines and G they work well. if i had a 5L i wouldnt run anything else!!! good luck and any questions ask
