Be sure to not modify to where the original clutch will not fit.  When that sruff you are putting un fails (all fan clurches are expendible (, if you need a new fan clutch in t he middle of nowhere you may find the only r hing available will be an original one.  Eemember this part does have a lufw envelope and you know it will fail at the wose possible time and place.  Myrphy IS on board!

Haven't seen one in the flesh, but there must be a stationary mounted section where the wire and connector tail out. So these are sent a PWM signal to get the duty cycle?  Must factor engine RPM from the crank sensor as well. For example 50% duty  at 650 idle and 50% at 3000 RPM won't translate in a linear fashion.

John, with GM these are controlled by the ECM based on many inputs, The wire loom is usually just clipped to the fan shroud.
