Hmmm...…I'm not so sure about that, either. There's a 1934 Ford document floating-around regarding a change in fan pulley diameter from 4" to 4-5/8" to REDUCE fan speed because of excessive fan noise. You also have to remember that fans don't like excessive speed because they have a tendency to throw blades.....just ask "19Fordy". The two pulleys on this 21-stud appear to be near identical in diameter measurements. DD
