    fan blade to radiator neck clearance

    I have a 1928 Model A Special Coupe that I recently purchased from a family member. When I got it he told me it needed an engine and the fan blade was hitting the top radiator hose. I replaced the engine and now with a new fan blade and water pump I have maybe 1/16th of an inch clearance between...
