turbo coupe electric fan clutch fan replacment

The TC fans won't work on a 5.0, motors are too deep. The left one hits the P/S pulley and the right one the alternator.

yeah i wasnt sure if it was just me that tryed it or not, but i have the same radiator that hawlk has so its like 3-4x thicker than the stocker and i thought maybe that was the problem.
