Default Help identify fan spacer / recommendations for current setup

When installing my new 3 row radiator and components today I realized I have the wrong fan spacer. For a 65 non hipo/ non ac car I think it is supposed to be 3.20" spacer. The one I have is less than 2" so I'm assuming it's the 1.91" for a 67-73 (markings - 2 / 376538?)?

Anyway, what size would you recommend using since I now have a 3 row radiator instead of what came from the factory 2 row radiator and 3.20 spacer? 3.20 or hipo 2.20 - just worried about the amount of space now w/a 3 row.

Also, since it is not a hipo car, would I get point decuctions for installing a concours fan shroud?

Thanks

Matt, I have a four row rad. The spacer I use is a 2 inch spacer which gives me about an inch and a half space from the fan to the rad. I also have a shroud.
