 I happen to be in the process of installing an electric fan on the
back side of my 78 Spider's radiator and was also about to come to the
conclusion that it would not clear the water pump pulley.  It will!
Barely.

Another solution, while you are there anyway, is to replace the current water
pump with one from an Alfetta. It had electric fans OEM and the water pump
does not have that pully on the from, giving more clearance.

Thanks for the tip Jerry.
I was actually just about to ask the digest if a late model Spider water pump had more clearance (no pulley?) since they had electric fans also.
Does the Alfetta and/or late Spider have the third connection for the bypass hose?
