[Chrysler300] Speaking of Fan Clutches

[mwl1967@xxxxxxx]

Hi All,
           strange problem I seem to be having with aftermarket fan clutches 
for my 70 300.  The replacement fan clutches seem to have a longer shaft ( 
easily an inch ) than the few surviving oem used examples I have left.  In fact 
new Hayden etc aftermarket ones seem to have a longer shaft than "old" 
aftermarket ones I have. 
            Needless to say I never had clearance problems when uprgading to 
4 core radiators here in Phoenix until this time. I now have no clearance for 
the recored rad and didnt realize I had so little clearance available with the 
3core. After all, I had done this modification to several big block fuselage 
bodied Chryslers before with no problem. Yes, we checked to make sure the 
mounting brackets are where they are supposed to be and the tanks areright up 
against the radiator support.
            Has anyone encountered this before? Should I try a "small-block" 
part.  Some suppliers have different part #'s for big and small block and some 
have the same. Same thing when looking up 383 vs. 440 cars.  Any thoughts 
appreciated other than going back to three rows.  Thanks !
