Also how tight a fit is the Mallory on the fan strap? I've been told that they don't fit! (obviously not true looking at your pic.)

Fan basket came like that... It was previously in an oval so needed the clearence to fit.
There are NO clearence issues with the engine in my car. Plenty of room

The Mallory is a perfect fit, there is a nice gap between it and the fan strap. enough room to get a finger in between them (and I dont have small fingers.)

Not sharpbuilt. Its an LA performance (uk) shroud. My spec is all wrong as we have just rebuilt the engine.

No pics of case machining, sorry.

Fan housing strap is a BAS item.
