Hang in there Eric. Very little is SIMPLE on these cars. I have the molded hoses attached to my Fluidyne and stock fans. If I were to do it again, I'd install the Flex-A-Lite suckers, copper elbows, and lay it down and be done with it. As far as the temp switches are concerned, put pipe plugs in the Fluidyne and buy the 2-stage adjustable t-stat from Pantera East for $50 and be done with it. That comes with a prewired in-line fuse and 30 amp relay which is more than enough to handle both Flex-A-Lite fans. This way, you get rid of two 30-year-old relays as well AND you can fine-tune the sequencing of your fans.
