The automatic fan switch is good. I originally had a manual switch which worked great as long as I remembered to flip it on. There were times where I wasn't behind the wheel, or the mechanic was testing, or my son learning to drive with the clutch. Whats that smell? Oops, I always knew right away what it was. I now have the auto with the sensor taped into one of the intake manifold ports and the fan comes on automatically. I still have the overide switch so I can turn the fan on manually, and I have a light on my dash that tells me when the fan is running. Piece of mind is priceless.

March is very aware of the FE problems with the underdrive pulleys, I talked with the engineering team and I removed the crank pulley from March and had a 7.25 made to match the original 428 pulley . After chasing the over heating problem " new larger radiator, bigger fan ect. the pulley made the big differance . I also looked at the original temperture of the 428 1966 engine thermostat . I now run a 165 not a 198 . I do not believe the old blocks should run the hot thermostat . Thats my 2 cents
