Need new fan assembly

[YELLOW 94]

After installing the new k member, I found that the engine is sitting about an 1 inch closer to the radiator. The vortech pulley is now hitting the fan assembly. Which new fan assembly do you guys recommend.

I had a similar situation to yours. I found a thread on corral where a guy cut the radiator supports (the two tubes that go into the rubber bushings at the bottom). This allowed him to push the radiator back more. I did this on mine and it worked great. Tons of space now. Figure I have a fox style water pump, fluidyne and stock fan, it all fits.

Just a question, but what's the crossmember for? street/strip/??
I guess it's not that big of a deal if it's mainly a street car, but pushing the motor forward an inch will add a good bit of nose weight and throw the handling off. Just getting a feel for what you're trying to accomplish

You're still running a stock radiator? I didn't think you would with that much power and the heat that NM sees............

I went to a 3.8L Taurus fan and it seems to be a little thinner.

Dual fans might get you some offset. How much room do you have to work with?
