Maybe someone can help me out here. I have a '54 Chevy pick up that I am putting a GMC 302 engine into. I noticed that I only had about a half inch clearance between the harmonic balancer and the radiator. There was no clearance at the water pump area. I thought maybe I could rearrange the mounting brackets to possibly give me another 3/8" clearance but that would leave me no room for an electric fan. Does anyone have any advice to offer?... Should I use a thinner radiator (custom built)? Does anyone know of another radiator that would fit this application?
Thank you for your time!
