I agree. If you are using an original style radiator, it may be easier to make one or have one made. There was a recent thread here somewhere on making a custom fan shroud out of fiberglass. It is actually quite easy to do.

yup was just thinking that markeb sent me a pic of one started thinking it looks like a steel 55 gal drum, i started stairing at my black plastic 55 gal. rain barrel,,! thats going to be my shroud,, slice the barrell to size w/open ends then but one slice in the tube so its like a cheap expandale mood ring open to size then use some electrical conduit and make some connecting rods on sides of ring and then to rad support pics are in my mind will try a mock this weekend paint all fluoresent pink and call it good LOL ALOHA HOP
