like how far into the engine bay it goes from the radiator? And including the electric fan motor?

oh... you mean the "police" boxes. I'm pretty sure they're exactly the same for 351 and 302 boxes since the water pump mounts in exactly the same position, relative to everything else. I'm not sure if the rad core was twice as thick or only 1.75x thicker for the HD setups, but you can fit a 3-row radiator with the stock shroud no problem. It's tight, but it fits. Don't remember who shoved one of those in though.

The fan clutch is different. And possibly the water pump. The fan itself should be the same.

The shrouds are definitely different, I know I have a few of each hiding somewhere. I'll see if I can find them tomorrow.

now that you mention that... I think I remember seeing that somewhere now. Already knew about the clutch for sure though.

FWIW. I put a cop radiator in my 89. I kept the original non-cop shroud but I had to trim it. I basically cut off the whole "cylindrical" snout portion of the shroud. It kept the gap between the shroud and the fan about the same as it was with the non-cop radiator.
