Hey all
I'm mocking up my cooling system on the stand before I get my '74 back from paint.
I currently have:
1 x electric fan
1 x mechanical fan
1 x 2" spacer
1 x fan clutch
I do not have a fan for the clutch, or a temp send/relay for the electric fan.
So I have decided to order a fixed blade fan for the clutch and the spacer. It looks like this will place the blade about 1 5/8 from the radiator and about 2/3 into the shroud, maybe a little more.
But it looks like I goofed a year ago when I ordered my Grifiin radiator. The core isn't wide enough to accept the stock fan shroud.
The side lips of the shroud are resting on the tanks of the radiator rather than flat on the core. This is creating an air gap between the shroud and core.
Will this cause the factory tray to not fit correctly?
Also, when in place, is the fan centered in the shroud side to side and up and down? If it is, it looks like I can fit up to an 18" blade.
What side blade came stock with these??
