That Durwood is ok
Antonio,
Search the archives in the 'oletrucks' list for 'flex-a-lite'. I
don't know the part number right now cuz the work computer won't let
me look at the archives and the MMM (mean mommy monster) saw fit to
take all of my Pcup receipts when she hit the road. I put a water
pump adapter
Hi,
When I installed a '57 261 in my '51 3100 many years ago, I ran into the same
problem with the radiator and fan.
I had ordered a new (std, not desert cooler) radiator from either Harmon's or
Chevy Duty, can't remember which. Had the rad for about a year before I tried
to install it.

I modified my fan to fit in. I carefully ground off each blade what was
needed (I even needed to grind more off because I put a 2 groove
harmonic balancer in my 261 and it definitely hit the fan). Then I
balanced the fan to make sure I wouldn't have any weird vibrations (I
saw a fan blade let go
Antonio,
I also by fate own a 1953 chev pickup with a later 235 in it. I am just about
to order the short shaft water pump. There is a special fan that has to be
purchased (from Jim Carter) as I am told by them, that needs to go on this
installation.
Jeepers, I hope to not have
That Durwood is ok in my book. Texans don't seem to like him much though!
