Electric Fan Controls

I know this topic has been covered several times but I cannot find the info I need right now.
I'm replacing the engine in my Navigator as well as the radiator and while I'm at it I'm replacing the clutch fan with a dual fan from a Continental V8 fwd car. I'm trying to do a neat install by wiring the fans to the AC compressor and using a temp. probe into the radiator with a relay and direct wiring it to the battery for power.
I cannot find the info on the Temp. probe that I have read about on this board. Unfortunately the search function hasen't helped.
If anyone has the info I neeed I would appreciate it. suggestions would also be appreciated.
Thanks

The temp sensor that is inserted in the radiator fins and any suggestions or links to other's installs.

I didn't find anything about the sensor, but I did find this page showing how to do the fan install.

That is a good bit of information but at this time I think I only need the Temp. Sensor's brand name and p/n or where I can buy it. Thanks

I believe that Flexolite sells parts for their set up, althought you you may have to buy the whole controller and not just the temp probe. If you did it should work with the fans you want to use.

I am looking for just the temp probe and thought that Flexolite would only sell the probe in their kit so I didn't check. I will now though, Thanks
