A/C Fan
I just finished removing all that had to do with A/C and now im trying to figure out what should i do with the A/C fan, the fan in front of the "condensor?". I'm also installing an E-fan. Now should I
Wire the small fan along with the E-Fan so that they run together??? I'm not worried about power usage because I have a yellow top and a 200 amp alternator charging it
or should i
Take the small fan out???
I want my car running as cold as possible
Thanks

If you got rid of the condensor, than the fan should be dumped with it. Just kidding. There is no reason to keep or remove the fan. Depending on quality of the electric fan, you can keep it as insurance in case one burns out.
Or, if you are trying to save a pound of weight, then it isn't needed.
Cold as possible doesn't mean a thing. What you want is to have the car running at normal operating temperature. Most quality e-fans will be able to keep the RX7 cool if the rest of your cooling/lubrication system are working.
Where did you get the 200 amp alternator?

The alternator came from www.egrproducts.com
ITs a Ford Contour 120 amp alternator rewound to 200 amps. They include everything u need to install it, u just need to make ur own adjustable bar. The one located on the right side of the alternator. All u need is the same type of metal and it can be straight. No bends at all are needed.

120 amps is plenty for me. I gotta find time to run to the junkyard and see if they have any Contour alternators.
Do you know if it is a 4 or 6 cylinder Ford alternator? They both are rated the same but the price difference is considerable.
What kind of hardware(wire connectors) did they include?
