The 37 passenger car fan has a 2" hub riveted to fan blades. When you factor in the pitch of the blades it's overall measurement becomes nearly 3" which I said in my pm to you. What you've needed to give us from the get go is the actual measurement from fan mount pulley to finned radiator surface with radiator mounted in it's exact final position.

Also, as you take the above measurement, you could measure what diameter fan blades must be to prevent blade tips from hitting underside of top radiator tank.
