Hayden makes an excellent fan clutch.

I second this....I have a Hayden on mine......but you want a thermo, not a non-thermo.
Slick 72' too.....nice one.

I replaced mine yesterday with one I got on Zip. It was a Hayden PN 2713. Works fine for me.

Replaced mine recently, I used Hayden Part number 2713 (note some Hayden listings show wrong hole dimensions and different part number - use 2713). Double check.
