174/177 supercharged small block, where to start?

Ok, I got 5" from the front of the harmonic balancer to the front of the lower blower pulley. 6rib and due to different harmonic balancers, I will give you some more dimensions. I am running a 2 groove March aluminum crank pulley.

My snout is 9.75"

From the center of the front driverside intake manifold bolt to the front of the upper blower pulley, I have 8 1/8"

IDK, you might be able to open up the crank pulleys inside diameter and reduce the blower pulleys outside diameter to let them fit inside of eachother?

Okay I measured mine, and I'm at 5 & 1/2" from the front of the balancer to the front of the blower drive pulley.

I thought about reducing the blower pulley's outside diameter so it fits inside the crank pulley like you say...And that COULD in fact work....I think...

But before I start modifying this stuff, I'm gonna try a couple things first. I pulled my mechanical fan off, and started taking measurements to build a shroud, to use with electrics fans. Either ONE single large fan, or TWO smaller fans is what I have to work with. I have an Afco radiator that has a core width of 20" and core height of 17.5". So thats what the shroud needs to be to. From what I've read it's recommended to shroud the whole surface of the core for use of electric fans.

3 1/4" from the water pump pulley bolts to the radiator.

2 5/8" blower pulley to radiator. Really tight, I know. :/

proto type shroud: LOL

I'll need some pretty thin electric fans, But can get away with thicker ones if they are off set.

I will try to find some fans that fit my needs. I'm probably making this part harder on myself. I should bolt on the shorter snout, cut down the blower pulley and spacer, and be done with it. LOL
