Default Y block big truck water pump/ fan.

We wish to raise the fan height on a Y block in a model A Ford . I have in my parts piling system a big truck Y block water pump with the ears on top for the fan . But we are unsure what the fan assembly looks like. Tried a flathead one but the assembly is too long and it has the wide pulley. I presume we need a double sheave crank pulley also?
Any help appreciated.

That is an option. I would opt for a plastic fan shroud that you cut when it comes. Meaning no hole for the fan.

Wish I had another or a better photo of this (blue) one for you but I don't. It's just a random photo I copied.

I'm assuming the 2 empty bolt holes on the top surface of the (red) timing cover are to mount the fan bracket. ???

Thanks @dmsfrr , thats a head start . Fan pulley sticks out further than i expected . Hopefully someone has a head on view.

So a random pic i found showing what I believe are the parts required . We do not have a fan or hub.
