Question:

Does this fan come with a thermostatic control? If not do you sell it in a kit with one or can you recommend a thermostat that will work with it? How can determine what CFM I need?

You will be able to add a thermostatic control to the Derale 16 Inch Tornado Electric Fan # D16516, but it does not come included.

I would recommend the Derale Thermostat Fan Control, part # D16735, which will turn the fan on at 180 degrees. This thermostat kit will work with the Derale Tornado Electric Fan # D16516.

This Derale Fan is rated at 2,175 Cubic Feet Per Minute (CFM), and would be good for a 4 or 6 cylinder motor. I have linked an FAQ on electric fans that includes a chart for CFM and further details on choosing the correct fan.
