All I'm saying is, the one Hayden makes for your car is 3.61.  That's not 
say that their fan clutch is exactly the same as what was on it originally.  
In fact, their listings don't show a 413 or 426, so maybe those two engines 
used something special for the additional clearance.  Mechanically, I'm sure 
their replacement clutch will work just fine.
