Just to test, pull the fan off just to see what happens. Watch the temp gauge close though or install your old fan so you don't overheat.

Good thing you tested it and found the issue.

I think the fan hubs are different between the direct drive and the clutch fans. You will need to find a clutch fan. Watch the thickness of those though. There's not much room .
