Mopar or no Car!
Is that a stock size clutch?
Man that's tight
Will you be able to get the belts on and off?
Yes. 2.75".Is that a stock size clutch?
I like itMocking things up and it looks good to go.
1973 Duster 340. Engineered Cooling Products 26” Small Block Radiator, Hayden 2947, Derale 17118 18” fan.
26" Small Block Mopar Radiator
Low Profile Fan Clutch
Standard Rotation : 18" Standard Rotation Fan Clutch Fan, Black
Fitment issues to overcome with these pieces:
1. The radiator is not quite a direct fit. You have the drill holes so they line up with the factory core support. I have a 26” core support so the smaller 22” core support may be different. Also, this 26” radiator isn’t a true 26”. It’s more like 25” IIRC.
2. The clutch needed some very light filing to get the fan to seat onto the bolt holes. Took about 4 minutes.
3. Install the clutch and fan with the radiator out. Put the radiator in last.
4. I was happy that the overflow bottle fit but I did trim the upper passenger side corner of the radiator to get it just right. Otherwise, it sits off the core support a bit.

Too close

You will not be able to get the belts on and off without removing the radiator.
I like it
Where did you get that recovery bottle from? Is it out of a Freightliner?

I stand corrected.
I hear ya but my luck with belts sucks.Yep. I’d rather have the fan that close and take the radiator out to change belts than to need a shroud. But that’s just me.
Are you planning on running a shroud? I wonder if a stock one bolts up to the rad.
It must have been the angle of the pic that made it look so tight.View attachment 1715754538
Slips right in. Just went back out in the garage and tried a spare belt. This is a P/S belt for my D100 but you get the picture. Slid right between the fins and clutch with room to spare.
