Out it didn't work but we didnt get a chance to replace it and it's cheap enough I'd rather not run a toggle switch

Try unplugging the fan+shroud, pull it out, and connect it to battery. If it spins, your controller is bad. Easiest fix is to run it to a switch.

Planning on Renix manifold, initially. Need to research. I don't have a local shop that can mandrel bend, and that's why I'm asking if there are pre-bent pipes I can buy somewhere. The clearance question was more to see if anything can be adjusted. It's likely due to my sagged out springs.

While replacing my CPS (again), I realized my entire exhaust from downpipe to turndown is loose and able to shift. I need to secure it so it doesn't move again and cause more trouble, and then I can work on replacing my manifold and downpipe if new timing doesn't fix my backfire.

To pass your GED test I would assume you will need to be able to use proper sentence structure, work on that.
The answer to what I am assuming you are asking is... Nothing. They're a glorified paper weight. I you want one though, I will sell you mine.

I'm just gonna say this but it seems if you made a intake manifold spacer it could work
