RE: Fan clearance problems |

Dave,
You must install the fan on the water pump, then position the shroud over the fan, then install the radiator last. Once the radiator is in place you can adjust the shroud for clearance all around the cicumference. The shroud holes are slotted, also the radiator can be shifted considerably in its brackets if necessary.
If you are using an aftermarket 4 core radiator the clearance at the front is tight, but it does fit. I am using the Hayden fan clutch on two of my Cougars with FE's and it works fine. Your Mustang engine compartment is identical to my Cougar. Also, the Edelbrock water pump is the same dimensionally as a stock pump.
It is possible someone mixed up the fan clutch with one for a different application, especially if they were out in the store where customers can dump everything out and play with it before buying.
