rad to fan clearance

[Rapid Robert]

On this setup I have 1&1/4" clearance. it is an aluminum aftermarket fan that appears to be pretty stout. Am I good? thank you for your time. RR

 

[GTX JOHN]

That will be fine.
I run less than an inch but I
have solid mounts or a motor plate.

 

[Rapid Robert]

thats good to hear, thanks John

 

[HemiSSDart]

I always run 3/4"...

3/4-1” is good. At 1-1/4” with a shroud you should be good.

yes I'd like to run a shroud but the rad has no mounting provisions for one. not sure the brand (champion maybe) as it has a champion cap but no markings anywhere on the radiator which I thought was strange & I think I read that champions have their marking on the bottom but nothing there.

Instructions on my new clutch fan say say the fan should be at least 3/4 inch from radiator
If you run a shroud, edge of fan 1/2 inch inside shroud opening
