Mark, 
I'm confused about the 3.61" overall height.  My car came from the 
factory with a 426 street wedge & now has a Max Wedge.  The 413 the 
previous owner installed had the same dimension between the water pump 
and radiator.  The radiator number is 2445637, which is correct for a 
'64 - 426 - high altitude & A/C.  Maybe it has an extra row of cores 
that requires a shorter clutch.  I know a 3.61" would be a half inch too 
long to fit between the water pump and radiator...Brian

I checked Haydens catalog in the fan clutch spec chart.  I see that the 
fan clutch for your car is 3.61" overall height.

My '64 Belvedere has a clutch fan that is 2-1/2" in length.  That leaves 
me approx. 1/2" of clearance to the radiator.  All the new  replacements 
I found were over 3" long.  I had mine rebuilt, so I
would have one that fits. I talked to another Max Wedge owner 
recently,and he's running a normal 4 blade fan, because he can't find a 
2-1/2" clutch to fit his either.
