Added a fan clutch to the 65

When I installed the 70 302 I used the usual four blade fan that came with the motor,a couple years ago I found a original fan shroud in a junkyard and I also grabbed a clutch fan from a 80s f150. I installed the shroud as soon as I got home but the fan layed around in the garage untill tonight,due to my upper radiator hose I had to use a 1 1/2 inch spacer and had to make long studs but its on and I hope it will free up some power and a little more gas mileage on the highway. I think I was getting 18 but my 65 country squire with a 390 will get 16 and both have the same gears in the rear end,it might have gotten a little better lately after I installed the duraspark distributor but the 70 302 did not run as good with a late 70s distributor so I installed the points istributor untill the duraspark can be recurved.
