Will a fan from a 60 series 2F interchange with a 3FE fan?

I believe the 3fe fan clutch is 190* where the 2f fan clutch is 180*. Minor difference.
My original question was if they are physically identical - are the dimensions the same, will they fit in the same physical spaces.
But lock-up temp would be important too!
I think if I had the appropriate thermostat in the 3FE it could deal with a little cooler fan...
Even a 180 fan vs 190 would beat haveing a fan that is locked all the time now!
TIA
All the 2F, 3F, 3FE fan clutches are architecturally interchangeable.
But do watch out for the temp rating. If a cold clutch (2F) is installed behind a hot radiator (3FE), then the fan will run all the time the thermostat is open.
If it runs all the time, then the clutch is bad.
Fan should start with engine, roar for a minute or two after startup, then wind down and be quiet until radiator temp locks it up.
