Thanks, and beautiful work!

The motor pictured elsewhere in this thread is going into my '65 GTO after the dyno pulls. I was able to measure all the clearances as my '65 has the same electric water pump and twin Spal electric fans.
The accessory pulley measures about 2.5" away from the back of the Spal fans- so plenty of clearance.
I've had the electric water pump in my '65 for about 6 years with no issues, they are rated for 3000 hours.
