B-20F Fan/Radiator Clearance 444-544

posted by  someone claiming to be Joe in St Louis on  Wed Mar 3 02:33 CST 2004 [RELATED]

While the body of my '65 PV544 is in the paint shop, I've focused my attention towards rebuilding the B-20F I pulled from a '75 240. This engine is equipped with the 5-bladed radiator fan with viscous clutch and I've noticed it is positioned a couple inches forward (towards the radiator) from the original B-18 direct drive configuation. Could someone who has already gone down this path tell me if there will be enough clearance between the fan & radiator to run this configuation? I'd like to make up some A/C compressor mounting brackets while the engine is out & the water pump/fan assembly plays into the design of the brackets.

Thanks in advance,

Joe in St Louis
