C3's have a short water pump. Good luck finding chrome or billet pulleys for the short set up, it ain't easy but can be done. Yes to the 16" 2700 CFM fan, a good and economical choice that works best as a puller configuration. If keeping the stock engine driven fan and installing the electric with it, the electric will have to be offset to the left (drivers side) on the radiator about 2" to allow for clearances. Are you planning on keeping the fan shroud, what are your intentions?

a short pump will be about 2 inches from the block to where one of the 4 bolts holds it on and a long is closer to 4 inches

there is tons of stuff on ebay go with aluminum as the chrome crap is for show only and not ment to be used asa performance part!
