I test ran my engine after running a bunch of wiring and fuse blocks for my horn, wipers, and radiators.
the blocks are rated for 6 fuses, all can be 20 amp circuits. I had one 20 amp fuse (in my dash fuse block) feeding my front trunk fuse block, which had two 15 amp fuse for each radiator, and a 10 amp fuse for my horn. when the engine got to temp, the 20 amp fuse in my cabin blew. I can only keep it from blowing if I run only one radiator by leaving one 15 amp fuse out of my front trunk fuse block. looks like I have no choice but to run another (10 guage 12v) hot from battery to radiator area, to a fuse block that can handle at least two 30 amp fuses, one for each fan. thanks guys!
