i went to the local pick n pull today looking for an electric fan. i ended up with one off of a 90's T bird i thought all was good and after a few hours i had it mounted to my northern alum radiator. well....... i missed one measurement.
the water pump, do they make a short nose water pump ( i know its not a chevy ). is there anything i can do to get this combo to fit. it looks really nice fan is the perfect size.

what did you guys use.

thanks shane

I used a fan off of a 1995 T-Bird before and needed just a hair more room. I trimmed the plastic shroud for the fan so it mounted closer to the radiator. Think I gained around 1/2" or so, which in my case was perfect
(and used it for many years mounted that way..)

If its a smallblock, I did the engine swap in my Dakota. I had to use a cast iron pump off a pre 70 smallblock. Thats the only engine with a shorter pump that I know of.
