Take a look on ebay - there are usually quite a few different ones for sale.

You guys are the best.

6hypo5conv,

If the spacer you have on your desk is correct for a 65K, build june 2, 1965, I would love to buy it.

Can you tell me how much?

Thanks, Wally

Guys, (Charlees & Wally) The 1 1/2" spacer that I have acording to anouther post looking for 1 and a very rough (installed) measurement from the one on my engine is NOT correct for a HIPO, the correct one is something like 2.3 or 2.4" (look up the other post-there is no mention of the spacer in Tony'd book-just the fan itself)I just sold a lot of 5 spacers on ebay that some were LONGER than that and 1 was SHORTER, I wonder if the "HIPO" spacer is used on any other Ford application so we can check other resources?

Chose a fan spacer that provides a minimum of 1/2"- 1" prefered clearence between the fan blade and the radiator core.

The correct 2.36 inch spacer I bought on ebay was being sold as a T-bird spacer. Don't recall for what year(s) or engine.

If you look on page 32 of the 4th edition of Tony's book it mentions the 1965/66 fan spaces as being 2.36 inches.
