well I found a 2-1/2" V8 spacer but it brings the rad to close to clutch fan. Im not sure if they make a spacer 1-1/2"?

 I don't think there's one for your 65. And you already changed over to the short water pump? What fan and extension are you using?

Do you have some pictures?

 You can install a shorter clutch fan. Hayden makes one especially short...

in order to bring the alternator to the drivers side I am changing to a GM regular(short) neck water pump & pulley, this aligns the aternator with the Ram Horn bracket (I need the ram horn/alt hardware).

This install will leave the fan 2" away from the rad so I will have to install a spacer.
