Hello everyone I'm buying a radiator and fan shroud for a car with A/C. I'm also throwing away my flex fan and installing a Hayden #3618 Fan and a #2705 clutch. The question is what size spacer do I use? Being as all of these parts are reproductions of the originals I figured that the spacer size was a given but I can't find the info anywhere. Oh by the way the car is a 1969 chevelle and I' using a radiator from Alumitech Reproductions. The radiator is the larger core a/c version. My car currentley has the standard cooling option and it just doesnt work very well.

Thanks
Lawrence

SB or BB? LWP or SWP? Which shroud do you have? Your best bet is to measure how much it will take to get the blades centered half in / half out of the shroud and go from there.

Thanks for the info it is a sb car with a long water pump. I'm still trying to find a shroud that will fit the radiator. I'm told that the shroud will only cover about 2/3 of the radiator.
