I suggest the Delta DC controller, and for most applications the FK35 is more than enough to a single high powered fan or two mild fans.

In other words, a cooling fan that consumes 35A of continuous current requires the use of an FK35 controller, and although a 60 series controller may be substituted, there is no significant benefit in doing so.
If you're using two high powered fans, then get the FK60.

As far as the water pump...unless you are racing your car on a straight track I would advise against the electric pump. It will not give you the same flow and will be more prone to wearing itself and the alternator.

Also, when installed electric fans it's a good idea to look at your alternator and upgrade if needed.

Mine took a little under three weeks. Keep in mind they are custom made after the order is placed.

I got mine in 2 or 3 weeks, sometimes it takes him a bit longer. He has a real job and a life too. Be patient, it will come
