An adapter between the clutch BC and the fan BC? Unfortunately the mounting
flange of the clutch is too big to fit through the center hole of the OEM fan.
Apart from that little niggle the idea would work. It would definitely work
in a case where the fan was larger than the clutch.
On that same old big block with cooling woes... I tried a "fan clutch
eliminator" too. It was an adapter with lots of bolts🙄 that took the
place of the fan clutch. This took care of the spacing to shroud
problem. Search that has some results for this both pro and con:

fan clutches and likely the original fan blade too...
