Default PWM for fans, will this work?

I am wanting to power and control my two Spal fans from my Holley HP ECU via a PWM controller (the Ford Fusion version) and have come up with a plan. I know this has been discussed at length in another post bout I would like to get some opinions as to whether or not this will work. Pictured below is a schematic I have hand drawn and a photo of what I have set up in the input/output of the ECU.

I don't see why not. If I had AC I would use CTS and AC pressure as well.

Larry,

I just looked at the schematic again, and I would add a 40amp breaker between the battery 12v+ and the fan controller.

Why do you prefer the ford pwm over the Chevy? Is one that much better than the other?
