Well, I don't have a 55 gallon drum, except for water recapture. But also, I became dissatisfied with this set-up for the radiator fan switch. I HATE switching on the AC and the cabin fan in order to get power to the radiator fan. What a waste. So I am experimenting with other power sources under the hood. I also think I might relocate the switch to near the shifter so I can access it more easily for DFCO (alternator on) cooling glides.
The basic idea of the radiator fan override is working great though. I can control the coolant temp spikes and keep them under 200, so far, almost all the time.
