Re: [Chrysler300] Speaking of Fan Clutches

Hi Bill, Doug & Mike!
 
Why not ask the question of George Riehl  _longrams@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx 
(mailto:longrams@xxxxxxxxxxxxx)   ? He's  very knowledgeable about fan clutches as he 
sells NORS fan clutches (and he's  our Chrysler 300 Club, Int. Inc. President).

This is  a response to a query I made to a fellow I bought an NOS 
thermal clutch  fan from.  I had asked why the part wasn't listed for 
'70-'73.   Could be some folks have been getting fan clutches from these  
years?

Bill,
My books tell me that 1970-73 call  for a taller fan clutch. It will 
work just fine, it's just a little  shorter.
Thanks,
