    I got a lot of my measurements from Brians framebuilding thread, check it out:

    I went with a suicide mount front end and a long pump as well. All together I left 8" from the pulley and probably could have used another inch. I have a Spal fan that is 3 3/4", rad is a twin row aluminum about 2 1/2" thick, the grill shell sticks out about 1/2" (I had to trim to fit), and I have about 3/4" clearance for my shroud. You can see how close it is in the pictures, I made sure it was all sturdy as heck, don't want it blowing back into the pulley.
