Car started to overheat, found fuseable link blown so replaced but continues to immediately blow link. The fan motor checked bad so replaced along with the relay. Still immediately blows fuse even with fan motor disconnected. Appears to have dead short, what do you suggest? By the way the A/C condenser fan and A/C system works fine?

If you pull the fan relay, does it still blow a fuse? If not, the short is between there and the fan motor. I hate to say it, but the only thing you can do is start tracing wires to see where the short is. If the link still blows with the relay removed, then the problem is before that point. Check to make sure the short isn't right where the relay is located. I've seen that happen before.
