I currently have a 3 core radiator and I was informed to move my fan back about 3/4". I took it off and put on the new bolts with spacers. It hits the compressor when 2 3/8" nuts are in between the fan. I then took one out and just used on 3/8" nut as a spacer. It fits ok and its about as close as I can go without the fan hitting on the compressor. The fan is coming out of the shroud more so than it was. If I stand beside the car, behind the fan it will blow my hair. I am not sure if it is out far enough though. The top of my shroud comes out more than the sides. On the top it comes out some but not near halfway. At most a 1/2". On the sides it comes out more. The radiator is up as far as it can go also. Is this ok or should I try to take some off of the shroud to compensate for this? Thanks for the help. I have an 83'.
