Take some careful measurements and watch craigslist ads, junkyards are more fond of their stuff price-wise - I used one from a later El Camino on mine, $25

Replacement fan shrouds are available from most restoration parts suppliers, but pricewise it's about a wash between them and buying one local to you...ie: craigslist add.

ok guys i got my fan shroud today from lmc trucks but looks like im missing the the brackets/the way to mount it to the radiator was wondering if someone had a picture of what i need or a link to where i can get the parts i dont see anything in lmc trucks? thanks

Original V8 trucks have a panel on either side of the radiator that bolt to the core support that the original shroud mounts too. I believe the 6 cylinders are different??

Brothers has the same one as the other guy has and its $110 all so i have it but i dont use it. My truck runs at 185-190 whit out it.

If you just need the panel pieces- I will have to look, but probably have a set. Let me know.

Thanks but not mine.... took the pic at the Grand Rod Run in Pigeon Forge last spring. Mine is here:

I did just pick up an original V8 shroud from LilRed66 though that I haven't installed yet- $125.00 shipped.
