Mine are 14 1/2" from center of the radiator mount. Using a short shaft water pump and 3 1/2" thick electric fan mounted high on the rad. I've got about 1/4" between water pump pulley and fan housing. If you use a fan on the water pump, it should leave you plenty of clearance. I would suggest hanging your motor in the frame and bolting your mounts to the block before welding them to the frame. That will help to ensure your motor sits square and level and clears your radiator.
Good luck and happy rodding.
