HT413
Semi Pro Bowler
Just installed the flex-a-lite flex fan and have some damn tight clearances. It's a standard 2 1/4 inch deep fan. The motor leans a bit back on its mounts, so the fan has only 3/8" clearance between fan and core at the bottom and about 1 1/2 inches at the top. In fact, its a 17" diameter fan because an 18 inch fan would've contacted the bottom radiator tank. Clearance between between fan and crank pulley is about 3/8". Is this a problem?
The motors a 413 out of a 1972 RV which are known for clearance problems due to a spacer attached to the factory harmonic balancer for the forged crank.
Fyi, the car came sans fan, as the car wasn't quite complete when i bought it. Now i know why there was no fan installed lol.
