Hey guys, this may be a dumb and obvious question but if I am using a standard rotation pump, meaning I have the a/c and power steering deleted, will using the stock fan clutch and fan setup be ineffective because of the fact that it is spinning in the opposite direction? I have an electric fan setup now but I want to go back to the stock fan clutch.

Hmmm... well more than anything the fan will blow air the wrong direction so that's another problem. Maybe you can get a flex fan or something?

Well thats what I was worried about, with it spinning in the other direction it would pull instead of push right? I am planning on swapping the water pump to the correct one and putting the power steering back on but wanted to run it like this temporarily.
