Re: Need a favor from one of you factory big block guys
I've got about 10.5" from the rad surface to the water pump mating surface.
I unloaded a stock 89 BBC serp setup I was going to use because of the lack of space.

Re: Need a favor from one of you factory big block guys
On my setup with the motor in the stock location, there was no room for the '89 mechanical fan, I think there was less than 1" of room between the waterpump hub and the rad. It would have been tight for a dual electric fan. In hindsight, I wish I would have kept it and maybe shifted the motor back an inch or so, or found a dual fan that would work.
