I have new round rubber mounts and had to shim them with some thick washers to keep the fan extension off the steering rack. If I need to change the fan belt I’ll have to lift the engine.

Subject: [TR] 4A engine question
How much clearance should there be between the steering rack and the front
fan crank extension? On my recently acquired 67 4A, I have visible wear on
the crank extension from rubbing the steering rack. I replaced both engine
mounts that needed to be changed with new round ones. The car had a
rectangular one and a round one on the other side. Go figure. I now have
only .010 inch space between the rack and extension. I suppose any amount
is good, but that seems small. Thoughts?
Thanks,
