LOL, no the Tim Allen theory would be:

"Okay well the fan is only designed to pull 4000 cfm at 40amps from the factory, so I went ahead and threw in a 2 hp Briggs and Stratton so this baby will crank out 40,000cfm on the low speed. Lets fire her up."

let's say I found a dual fan setup out of a 3.8L in a ford windstar. Likely to work?

I replied to your PM and I'm not really sure, I didn't even know it existed 'til you brought it up...

I had never seen it either. Looked cool, but the bid went higher than I wanted...

Wrong again.......It would be a Binford fittyone hundred...

R to give you an idea i am going with dual 16" fans on my truck

UGH! I hated electronics in college. Yes...I can read that drawing, but I don't want to.

That and history were my worst subjects. Mostly because I didn't like either one.

I respect those who like electrical and electronics, but I have no idea how you understand it all.

Just one more reason why I'm better than you Brian

Yep. My best friend is an electronics engineer. She teases me too.

Then again...she cannot do what I do with the software and rapid prototyping.

Everyone has their own skills. They just have to find them.

I'm actually not an electrical engineer, although I do enjoy it. My study at school is Computer Science and Engineering, although I'm in the early stages.

I used to own a Video Arcade, so like everything else I've owned, I wanted to be able to do it all. I started learning how to diagnose and repair problems from the man that did it before I owned it. He taught me alot about electronics that I didn't learn from High School. My favorite of which was, "To be good at electronics, you have to start with an IQ 2 points below a rock, because nothing makes sense!"

So, from what I've been able to tell on here, Chris has the perfect start!

I'm actually not one either, but I DID stay at a Holliday Inn Express last night

That and the fact that I can't see it.

The technical classes where I could see something or do something with my hands...I made excellent grades in.

Robotics, CNC, even PLCs (because they did something if you programmed them correctly). I did pretty good in physics even, but we did tons of experiments (actually doing something).

I don't know if the fact that I was deaf at the time had anything to do with it or not...I doubt it, but it probably didn't help.
