What are you guys using for a fan controller?

Right now mine is manual, I have a marine push/pull switch where the choke control used to be. This was okay for getting on the road, but will certainly be a nuisance in the long run.

I have two temp senders right now, one in the stock location on the side of the block (or is it in the head... I forget) and another in the thermostat housing. Right now I'm running two temp guages, the stock original and an aftermarket that actually shows degrees.

I've seen several controllers that use a sender that is just clamped to the exterior of a hose or rad core, and just one that actually has a screw in sender. I'm thinking I would prefer the latter, since I already have a place to put it.

What are you guys using?
What do you like and dislike about it?

Here is the one I chose. It was a pretty easy install, and it has been very reliable. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Ford-...QQcmdZViewItem
