I am reinstalling the big block in my 1969 SS RS Camaro and I am not comfortable with the clearance between the front of the fan clutch and the radiator. Does anybody know what the clearance should be? The car had a 1968 short water pump and bracket set up for some reason. I changed the waterpump to the long style pump and installed the right pulleys and brackets and everything lines up. The radiator is a four core and it came out of the car. The fan clutch is about 3" tall when placed a table. Any suggestions on what the proper clearance should be, would be appreciated.
