So I've been running the stock 2 core radiator with no shroud and a 7 blade clutched 19" fan since I've had the car on the road (many years!) 1971 340 Demon. It's parked in the summer because it runs wayyy to hot! I recently decided to put an 3 row aluminum Champion rad in the car with a stock V-8 a body 22" shroud. Here's the problems/questions. The fan doesn't fit the shroud and the clutch is too deep and is about a sheet of paper width away from the rad. Am I going to need to run a fixed fan, do away with the clutch? Do they make a more shallow clutch and for what application? Obviously I'll need a smaller diameter fan too, maybe 17"? Anyone have experience with this?
Thanks
