Cool stuff! I have the same handle you have, wish I had a shorter handle. It's a tight squeeze for the motor and radiator but you can run a fan. I recessed my firewall and run a clutch fan and here is more room if I needed it. Wish my truck wasn't hacked so I coud of just used a mustang II like you did.

What are you going to used for gauges? The gauge panel area almost a .25" thick. Unless you cut the whole cluster get the plasma out and it's still a fight.

i think i am going to need a shroud or do away with my mech fan and put electric fans. getting some advice on that in another thread right now.
With that much room, maybe you could find two baby fans to put above your mechanical one. Just a thought.

you have the same problem most rods do, the fan is too low,the hot water enters the radiator at the top,,,if your running a vee belt system and not a serpintime belt,,,there is a fix to run your mech fan,,,1 build a custom shroud,,or this is the best,,,find a 1960 dodge truck 318 poly,,ive heard some motor homes also use this,,they have a special timing chain/water pump cover,,,it raises the water pump up higher then normal,,it would put it in the middle or higher on your radiator,,,or get a street rod electric fan with built in shroud use it on the engine side puller,,much better then a pusher fan,,,some fans such as the cooling componets fans,,require a lot of amperage,,
