[2nd67GTO]

So I’m tired of fighting warm cruise temps. Brand new build, 67 GTO, 467 stroker, Kauffman D-ports, Edelbrock water pump clearanced to approx .060 thou, March Style Track serpentine pulley set-up. Cold Case 1 1/4” dual tube rad, dual 12” Spal fans controlled by the FAST EFI ECU. 160 deg thermostat and Vintage Air. Runs 170 all day around town (haven’t Driven or ran AC on a Really hot 95+ day). Hit the freeway, 70 mph at 3000 rpm and she climbs to 195 in about 10 minutes. I realize those temps are fine, but ambient has been in low 70s. I can only imagine where the temps would go on a 90+ degree day.

After reading the multiple posts regarding lack of airflow with the CC shroud, I’m contemplating going to manual fan, clutch and shroud.

Problem is clearance Clarence! I only have 4” from the radiator core to the face of the water pump. Is this enough room for the clutch set-up and still maintain the half in, half out of the shroud for the fan? If not, what are my options?

Thanks for any advice or suggestions.
