Radiator electric fan thermal switch

[Barrie Robinson <barrie@look.ca>]

This current-day way of 'automotive engineering' is getting me down.  It 
has taken three days to determine if the Edelbrock intake manifold 2198 has 
a port for an on-off switch for my electric fan.  Such information was NOT 
Edelbrock's web page but I did eventually surmise that it was 1/2 inch NPT 
only because that is the size of the unit THEY sell. (Some of the Ed 
maniflds have two ports - different sizs!).  So at last I know that the 
hole is 1/2" NPT.   The Edelborck switch is Cdn$95 !!! WOW and I see 
Chevy/Ford units for US$7 BUT.......none of the web pages say what size the 
damn thread is !!!!!

Can anyone point me towards a screw-in switch with 1/2" NPT thread?  I do 
not need any wire/connectors etc.   It seems impossible to believe that no 
one has ever stuck a generic (reasonably priced) switch into an Edelbrock 
intake manifold !!!!!  I have doen Google, Copernic, and all ponts NESW 
with no POSITIVE success
