8ba in a 32, which fan?

trying to fit a 8ba in my 32 truck, only problem is the fan is consuming to much space. ive read several threads on this issue but yet to find the best combination of parts to make it work. i have a 4 bladed fan that mounts on the generator mount and the spacing on the blades are not all equal.

thanks in advance for any help!

 

anyone?

 

I did a roadster with 8ba for 32 Spitfire and he took care of the fan. Maybe he can helo you.

 

I used a stock truck fan (wide belt). I ground off the rivets holding the fan blade and bolted on a flat stainless aftermarket fan.

 

Hi cadillacofin,

Here is the fan photo of my "32 Spitfire" that krylon32 built. It is a 6 blade Ford truck fan and does that baby move the air! The 6 blade fan really looks cool and keeps that flathead cool too!!

Happy New Year!

saw this manifold mount for the fan putting the generator on the head, and wondered if it would be possible to put everything on a one belt set up? or would that be askin to much of the crank pulley to turn all this??
