Brushless zl1 fan controlled by holley efi

[@Burndown]

I have one in my Winnebago! Bad ass fan!

[@frankconte5545]

I have the twin Chevy VOLT 12" fans on my rig with Holley EFI PWM control, loved your video on that setup. Bought them NEW from GM dealer last year for way cheaper than aftermarket vendors and it's been working great!

[@Burndown]

@@frankconte5545 hell yeah! Have them on my car now. I’m work on some 15” mounts as well so I’ll let everyone know when those drop!

[@masoncampos7043]

​@Burndown the prototype is looking good Dane. Can't wait to see the finished product. If I can score a fan I might be interested in picking one up.

[@Jonny_trans]

Thank you for the info! I’m going to upgrade my 12 Silverado fans(3relay) to the 2016 (pwm) ones. My stock 2012 ECU can control either. The oem shroud on the 2016 fans is a TON better. Thanks for the info Devin!!

[@visceris35]

Thank you for being so informative and explaining things for everyone to understand. Im pretty far off from wiring my car, but damn if im not gonna be ahead of the game when i do. Keep it going man. Love it 👍🏻

[@durango4624]

I dont care what Everyone says about you Devin i reckon your allright cheers....

[@jphorns730]

Thanks for this !!!! Just picked one of these up to test against my dual 500watt spal set up so awesome timing as it should be delivered soon !

[@tornupen4248]

I need to give credit to you sir ! This set up works hands down. If it wasn’t for your video I’d still be fighting overheating issues.

[@theholleyefiguy]

Glad to hear it man That fan is a beast

[@mhtate3626]

Appreciate the PWM info, that's fairly straightforward.

[@gafrers]

Greatly explained and shown, as usual 👍👍

[@jasonbrinegar6759]

Bless you!

[@TechMarcB]

It’s a bad hammer for sure. Got it on my mustang

[@TechMarcB]

Just so you know, it doesn’t have to be a ZL1. Can come off an SS too, just has to be the V8. Mine is not ZL1

[@363gray]

What year mustang ?And what size radiator?

[@TechMarcB]

@@363gray a fox, and I want to say it’s like a 22x24 universal radiator something along those lines

[@Sleeperdude]

Thanks for sharing

[@flinch622]

The quality in this fan is not in the wattage, but the collector ring molded around the blade tips - that's free efficiency. But this does need a shroud to stand it off the radiator about an inch. As for the 200mph problem [shown at 8:44]... I'm not sure I would cut that flange off but rather look to shim & increase clearance and avoid the unintentional spin welding of the plastic. That feature does add strength and stability, plus... I would be a little concerned about ruining balance. Personally, 80amps is rediculous... and I would try to find something that can work on half that or less.

[@mcss-ll4yg]

Besides the huge amp draw could this fan be operated steady state and survive?

[@Jvcomet]

Thanks👍

[@garyhamilton2240]

Hey Devin can you use one of theses fans on a none EFI car( carburator) is there a stand alone controller? I looked online but couldn't find anything. Thanks love all the videos great job

[@RaptorGary]

Great Video, I do have the SPAL 16" Brushless Fan. I found it after talking to an Engineer at SPAL he told me that only a few Retailers have this fan. He supplied me the part number and I found it at Speedway Motors. My question is with your digital PWM Signal functioning with water temp, HOW WOULD YOU also Program it to run with my Vintage AC? I think with the AC ON the fan should run at like 50% Duty Cycle. Your Thoughts?

[@TeamHybridRacing]

Have you found any instances of folks using one axis with vehicle speed and turning the fan(s) off at a certain mph? I'd imagine its just a case by case situation as to if possible and what speed if so. I have a large IC in front of my rad and spal setup but hadn't really messed with it much to see how it would do.

[@davidburke6785]

I use MPH for the X axis on my drag and drive car. Works great.

[@TeamHybridRacing]

@@davidburke6785 that's what I was thinking. Last two events I've just left it but curious I'll prob just have to play around with it. What speed do you shut it off at?

[@davidburke6785]

50MPH

[@TeamHybridRacing]

@@davidburke6785 appreciate the info. I'll prob try around there and see how it does. My shroud has flap built into as well

[@b9350t]

Great video!

[@ritchardposterior262]

how come whenever i run into a issue. and i am looking for solutions i somehow find my way back to your youtube channel with a solution, and all the relevant information required to execute it. Its much appreciated man, this video saved me probably around 2 grand. Quick question about the fan wiring. it looks like those connectors cap out at 10 guage wire, which according to everything i can find is only rated for a maximum of 30 amps. according to these charts i am looking at i need to run a 6 or 4 AWG wire to the fan to sustain 70-80amps.

[@ford9050]

Nice video. I have installed 3 of these in fox bodies and had Dewitt's build the shroud. Can you make a video on how to set up fan duty cycle on a Holley screen?

[@theholleyefiguy]

You didn’t watch the whole video did you

[@ford9050]

@@theholleyefiguy I did. I meant the Holley touch screen dash.I set my fan up off your dual truck fans. In that video you had freq @ 100. does 128 pull more cfm?

[@TheOriginalBorne2Build]

Hey man. I have a question regarding this fan. I'm trying to use this ZL1 fan on my modified ZR1. Do I need anything to run it with my ECM? Do I need the oem ZL1 fan controller?

[@lukeedwards6774]

Hello, Have a slightly off topic question do you PWM your water pump as well?

[@theholleyefiguy]

I do not

[@mattsantoro1480]

Hey Devin How do you cut the ring off.

[@anotherbluenova6358]

How is is compared to the old Mark VIII fan. That used to be the gold standard.

[@naeem197128]

How ican use it in my chrysler300 s 2018 v6 3.6l?

[@jcook69camaro]

Is there a way to make the fan come on at say 50% when the a/c is on?

[@SleeperC10]

Why is the rpm scale so high?

[@FadetoBlack1463]

Sorry if I missed it. How many amps does it draw?

[@mhtate3626]

11:27 he says 65 amps on 16 volt, potentially works out to 80+ on 12 volt - timestamp for my own quick reference. Good option to have since I need to revisit my own cooling system.

[@FadetoBlack1463]

@@mhtate3626 Thank you.

[@racetech540]

How does it compare to Deltapag fans?

[@deltapag5051]

I don't think Devin tried the 18" Delta PAG fan. The Delta PAG 18" moves 4,100 cfm through a 2.25" core, is 2.70" thin, 28amps at 13vdc, weighs 4.6lbs, only costs $425. No need to cut anything down or modify. The Delta PAG is 25% more efficient than this Spal fan. Most importantly, there are no electronics in the motor, so the only spare you need is the ECM. Also, the Delta PAG motor is only 3" in diameter, so doesnt block ram air. Devin should try the Delta PAG 18" fan, I think he will be pleasantly surprised.

[@MPHMayhem]

Is it bad I talk to your videos 😂

[@theholleyefiguy]

Not at all

[@buiItnotbought]

How much more did it flow vs delta pag?

[@screamineaton]

this fan on full tilt can move 4k+ cfm through a 2.5" thick core. which is what delta pag rates their 18in fan.

Wow those are crazy high numbers for such a thin fan. I got flexilite monster dual 16" they're massive. Its advertised at 6000 cfm. But they test it without any restriction right?

[@exidous6831]

@@buiItnotbought They're worth giving a go. I have a pair of Delta PAG 12" and I don't think they ever break 50% on my LS7 with a 14" tall radiator.
