Hi! New to the forum here and glad I found it! I drive a 1956 MErcury station wagon as a daily driver. I had a new custom radiator made and it's a 3 core. It fit in fine BUT the original fan only leaves me like 1/8th of an inch of space between the closest fan blade and the core of the new radiator!! OH OH! It looks like I can't remove the spacer from that fan or the fan will hit the power steering pulley. I don't really want to put an electric fan in front of the radiator because I have heard they are not that effecient at cooling the 312 Y block. I would like to have a fan behind the radiator if at all possible, I thought of mounting an electric fan to the radiator somehow and removing the orginal one. I need another inch of space between that radiator and the original fan if I keep that one. I am stuck and not sure what to do! HELP!
