Setup:
Koyo Rad
FAL pushers.

Issue:
I had the fans running off a thermistor, to a fuse, to a relay(40amp). The relay supplied power to the fans. I kept burning the relay up and the fans would not get power. So I added another relay, and put each fan motor on a separate relay. Today it burned either the relays up, or the motor fans.

I can't seem to keep the car from overheating at all with this setup, and I didn't have room for the pullers unless I switch to a different brand. Also considering getting a vented hood.

The radiator cap vents when the car is about 195-200 degrees.

Just seeing if anyone has any other suggestions to fix the issue without having to switch my fans out.
