Title: water pump pilot stud size
Post by: ReddingScott on 2018-03-08 11:32
I am going to order a new 6 blade radiator fan to aid in cooling but the stock fan is so close to the radiator, I can't see the pilot hole size. I see that it can be either 5/8" or 3/4". Can anyone determine for me the correct pilot hole size for the spacer that I am going to need? I have a stock 312 engine. Thanks!

Stock '57 would be 5/8.  Some trucks had 3/4, but there were no 312 trucks.   John
