Ok yeah I vote angle them out sounds like a winner to me....Or you can angle them out for bigger smokier burnouts.
You burning rubber yet? Quit slackin and get her done! lol
Working on it...............getting closer
I ordered a different fan and narrow spacer from Summit, it was delivered yesterday, should do the trick
As I said yesterday nothing is an easy task on this build. You think the Radiator and shroud would bolt right in.............................. Wrong, more custom fabrication by Sean. Fabricated a bracket for each side with nutserts to bolt the shroud right up. Looks better than the factory

And here ya go....................another quote from Sean.
"A Big Block Hemi, mounted too high in an A-body '69 Dart, with an oversized 26" E-body radiator."
When my FIL put the engine in it sat a little high which in turn canted the fan back and was too close to the radiator. This was the reason we needed a different fan and spacer that @HemiDenny was asking about earlier.

Rad fan shroud look great!
Thank you, he did an awesome job!
on the plus side....that 26" aluminum radiator and shroud will cool.
BTW, did you install undersize pulleys or standard? Foe what you are doing with the car, I would recommend sticking with standard size pulleys, the undersize adds a little HP, but slows down the water flow, critical when idling / putting around..

Thanks, Denny. My FIL had the undersized ones on there and Sean recommended the same thing, using standard. I got standard pulleys from 440 Source

You don't want one of those Ansen bells, a buddy of mine had one on his 66 Hemi Coronet and I swear it out weighed the 18 spline 833 that was behind it.
I bet they are heavy........................Iron bellhousing marked NHRA.
